A newly identified species of scarab beetle has been discovered on Pulau Ubin, an island off the coast of Singapore. The finding is detailed in a recent publication documenting the island’s biodiversity. This beetle is one of over 1,300 native fauna species recorded in the study. Pulau Ubin is recognized for its relatively untouched ecosystem, providing a habitat for a diverse range of wildlife. The publication highlights the island’s ecological significance and the importance of continued biodiversity research in the region. This discovery contributes to a greater understanding of Singapore’s natural heritage and the species it supports. Further research may reveal additional unknown species inhabiting the island.
