The Totoro keyhole beetle's
slender body and unique silhouette make it a striking specimen, distinguishing it from typical insects. Its slow movements, combined with its lurking form in the shadows and its still form, make for fascinating observation. While not flashy, it's a highly collectible species known only to those in the know, and is well-suited to those who prefer a more tranquil breeding style.

The basic approach to breeding is to provide a well-ventilated enclosure with a hiding place and bedding. Maintaining a moderate humidity level to avoid over-drying and avoiding over-humidification is crucial. Feed the beetle with a focus on small live foods, adjusting the diet accordingly based on the individual's condition. Because this species is not widely distributed, it's important to time your search for a specimen in good condition.
