The devil's coach-horse beetle (Ocypus olens) is a species of beetle belonging to the large family of the rove beetles (Staphylinidae). [2] It was originally included in the genus Staphylinus in 1764, [ 3 ] and some authors and biologists still use this classification.
The original description listed both Australia and New Zealand as the collection localities for Creophilus oculatus (as "nova Hollandia et Zelandia"). [3] [6] [4] The species has been variously considered to be indigenous, [10] [11] adventive or endemic to New Zealand, [4] and sometimes also indigenous to Australia. [12]
As might be expected for such a large family, considerable variation exists among the species. Sizes range from <1 to 35 mm (1.4 in), with most in the 2–8 mm range, and the form is generally elongated, with some rove beetles being ovoid in shape. Colors range from yellow and red to reddish-brown to brown to black to iridescent blue and green.
