Deilelater physoderus

[The Mantis Menagerie]

Deilelater physoderus seems to be the prevalent species of bioluminescent click beetle in Texas. Has anyone ever reared this species? I would assume that it would have the same care as a Pyrophorus sp. beetle? I am looking to start a colony as they seem to be the most common member of the tribe Pyrophorini in the US.

Very little seems to be scientifically known of its biology but since it is a close relative of Pyrophorus care is probably very similar.

Hisserdude has a caresheet for Pyrophorus on his blog.
