The adult male Water Spider Beetle (Agron rishumon) is one of the largest longhorn beetle species in the world. He is equipped with many large hind legs and one or two large antennae, which he uses to hunt. He is often seen swimming in rivers, lakes and ponds.
As a water spider beetle the female lays her eggs underwater. The eggs hatch after about 4 days and the larvae swim away. After some months they metamorphose into large diving beetles. They often float on the water surface and some species are associated with floating water plants, like duckweed.
The Water Spider Beetle lives in many countries in Europe, North America and Asia. It can be found in every kind of habitat, even in tropical countries.
Due to the large size and the strange appearance the Water Spider Beetle is often associated with phantoms and monsters, especially in Africa.
The Water Spider Beetle was identified by Dr. Jean Sainte-Claire Bugeaud (1748-1831), French politician and naturalist.This invention relates to an improvement of the structure of a surface light source system or the like for uniformly irradiating a panel having an uneven plane or a panel having many lamps arranged at intervals along the outline of the panel.
FIG. 1 shows a typical surface light source system used in connection with a liquid crystal display device, which comprises a plurality of cold-cathode tubes 1 arranged along the outline of a light guide 2. The light guide 2 has a surface having a flat plane and is used to lead the light from the cold-cathode tubes 1 to a liquid crystal display panel. The shape of the surface of the light guide 2 varies depending on the size and shape of the panel. The light guide 2 is usually formed with a white resin. The reason for the use of the white resin is that the light guide 2 can be easily viewed by users
