The Salt Creek tiger beetle requires saline mud flats and exposed mud banks with salt deposits within saline wetlands and along stream edges for foraging, feeding, reproduction, and overwintering. Salt Creek tiger beetles depend on the presence of moist, muddy areas and are most often found within a few feet of a stream or wetland edge. Other tiger beetle species found in Nebraska’s saline wetlands are more tolerant of drier conditions.

The salt deposits upon which the Salt Creek tiger beetle depends are remnants of a former inland sea that once covered Nebraska. The beetle has declined with the loss of Nebraska’s saline wetlands, which are important for the beetle and other wildlife, including more than 200 species of migratory birds and saltwort, an endangered plant in Nebraska. Like all types of wetlands, saline wetlands are important for maintaining good water quality and flood control.
