BeetleWings, along with the LeafWings, were the first settlers of Pantala, with both tribes originating from Pyrrhia.[1] According to the Legend of the Hive, the two tribes were refugees who could never return to Pyrrhia, settling in Pantala to escape trouble[2] caused by the assassination of Queen Falcon.[3] BeetleWings were eventually bred into extinction after the arrival of Clearsight, splitting them into the HiveWings and SilkWings around 4,500 AS. They were first introduced unnamed in The Lost Continent and were formally named in The Poison Jungle.

Trivia
- When Clearsight first came to Pantala, the BeetleWings were all the same, just living in different places, similar to how SapWings and PoisonWings lived separately but are all still LeafWings. Therefore, the introduction of Clearsight's very strong genetic material to one of those sects of BeetleWings caused them to diverge into HiveWings.[event 1]
