Abstract
⺠We examine a potential mechanism for personality in a beetle. ⺠The personality - death feigning/activity levels - alters with dopaminergic activity. ⺠High death feigning/low activity beetles exhibit low brain dopamine levels. ⺠Dopaminergic system underlies death feigning/activity personality in this species.
