Here is one of the figures from the paper, illustrating more beetles feeding on multiple species of Amphibians!
Gil Wizen, Avital Gasith (2011). Predation of amphibians by carabid beetles of the genus Epomis found in the central coastal plain of Israel Zookeys, 100, 181-191 : DOI:10.3897/zookeys.100.1526
That’s amazing! what kind of beetle was it?
It’s a ground beetle in the genus Epomis (Carabidae). It looks like these beetles are roughly around the 20-25mm range.
The DOI that you provide at the bottom is not properly linked. It should go to DOI:10.3897/zookeys.100.1526.
