What gameplay feature is this bug affecting?
Item Drops

What's the issue? Please include any error messages you receive and as much detail as possible.
This report is being made at the suggestion of the moderators and regarding an item belonging to Thelioden (#369858):

After chatting with the above user, it looks like there was a bug where the "Beetle Nemesis: Platymeris laevicollis [Piebald]" dead beetle token was dropped from the Whack-a-Snake game as a prize!

At the time that the above item was obtained, the associated beetle species had only been released for 3 days, and even at the time of this bug report, no beetles of the Platymeris laevicollis species should have been capable of aging to 31 days to become a dead beetle token (even with the use of an aging pebble).


Any links relating to this bug? For example, if a particular lion is bugging, what is the link to that lion?
At the moment, there is exactly 1 instance of 3 of the variants of Platymeris laevicollis beetle:

1 each of the Albino, Black and Piebald dead beetle items.

Any screenshots you can provide us with?

A new instance of this seems to be occurring with the (at the time of writing) unreleased Segestria florentina "beetle"!

Tier 3 of the Championship Shop has not yet opened, and no instances of live Segestria florentina should yet exist, but an instance of Beetle Nemesis: Segestria florentina [Metallic] does exist in game. Would love clarification if this is happening due to dev testing, or if players are somehow obtaining these before the "beetles" are released in game.

An additional instance of this seems to be occurring with the (at the time of writing) unreleased Segestria florentina "beetle"! This time with a Beetle Nemesis: Segestria florentina [Emerald].

--------

EDIT:
I just found a reference to this from 2020!
https://www.lioden.com/topic.php?id=304429417598

Maybe this is just standard practice by the devs to distribute some of these dead beetle tokens prior to release of a new "beetle" species?
