What the Beetle in a Starry Teardrop Shows
A beetle fills the center of the teardrop-shaped Christmas ornament, with curling shapes and dots decorating its shell. The ornament hangs vertically among layers of fern leaves that extend around the composition. Its beetle centerpiece, patterned body, and surrounding foliage combine an insect theme with a festive decoration.
Fascinating Facts About Beetles and Ferns
A beetle’s hardened front wings form a protective case over the delicate wings used for flight. Ferns reproduce through spores rather than flowers or seeds, and many species release them from structures found on the undersides of their fronds. Some beetle shells appear metallic because microscopic structures reflect light in particular ways.
