By changing the color of a beetle, this could cause disruption in which animals consume the beetle. A specific pattern could possibly mimic one of a poisonous beetle, thus reducing the amount of beetles eaten. This would cause a growth in population of said beetles and a possible decrease in population for animals that consume the beetles.
