Welcome to BugsDirect Ltd. Leading Suppliers of Worldwide Entomology Specimens (Retail/Wholesale)
Laccotrephes pfeiferiae (Order: HEMIPTERA) – A museum-quality water scorpion specimen in A1 condition, expertly dry-preserved and spread for collectors, educators, and natural history enthusiasts.
Laccotrephes pfeiferiae is a predatory aquatic bug within the family Nepidae — the water scorpions — distributed across Southeast Asia. Named in honour of the naturalist Pfeifer, it is a species that exemplifies the remarkable predatory adaptations of the genus: an elongated, flattened body for stealth in aquatic vegetation, powerful raptorial forelegs for ambushing prey, and the characteristic long caudal siphon that functions as a breathing tube at the water surface. Seldom encountered in collections, pfeiferiae is a rewarding and uncommon specimen for collectors with a particular interest in aquatic Hemiptera, Southeast Asian entomofauna, or the fascinating and underrepresented world of true aquatic bugs.
Perfect for entomologists, natural history collectors, educators, artists, interior designers seeking authentic Victorian cabinet aesthetics, and anyone passionate about the extraordinary diversity of the insect world.
