List of 6-letter Insects that contain C

    1

    Chafer

    Melolontha melolontha (cockchafer) and related Scarabaeidae

    Large, clumsy, nocturnal beetles that blunder noisily into windows and lights on warm summer evenings — the adults are harmless leaf-grazers but the larvae (white C-shaped grubs) live in soil for 3–4 years eating plant roots, damaging lawns and crops; badgers and rooks dig up turf to find them.

    2

    Cicada

    Magicicada septendecim (and related species)

    A loud-singing insect spending 13 or 17 years underground as a nymph before emerging in massive synchronized broods to mate and die within weeks.

    3

    Locust

    Schistocerca gregaria (desert); Locusta migratoria (migratory)

    A grasshopper that has transformed into the swarming phase — physiologically distinct from its solitary form, capable of forming billion-strong swarms that devastate agriculture across continents.
