Mating Wheel Bugs
Hi Genesis,
Prehistoric is a word that we often hear in conjunction with Wheel Bugs. Your mating Wheel Bugs are Assassin Bugs, not beetles.
Neither pair of wheel bugs is mating, just coupled. Mating means they would by coupled, the male off to the side, not directly on top.

Thank You. Since discovering your site I have gained quite an education and have solved mysteries that have lurked in the back of my mind for 30 years. Your prompt response made it possible to find out everything I needed to know about each of the specimen in question. I appreciate your time and service.
