One species of insect that can establish a mutualistic relationship with flowers is the beetle. Beetles are a type of insect that helps the pollination process of flowers to produce fruit or seeds. There are various types of beetles and the one that is the focus of my attention in this post is the Carpenter beetle type.

It is called the Carpenter Beetle because this type of beetle is skilled at making holes in wood, both in wood in house buildings and in dead trees. The hole made by the beetle becomes its residence.
The carpenter beetle has a scientific name, namely Xylocopa or Carpenter Bee. The species of beetle that I am sharing is the female beetle. We can easily recognize female or male beetles by looking at the yellow color near their heads. If there is a yellow color it means it is a female beetle
