Correct. This rather barren land would be typical of the spot described as the home of Scarab the Dung in the Cockroach of Meadowfield trilogy.
Although she is mentioned often in book one, A Pilgrimage of Pests, the mysterious Scarab the Dung does not appear until the second book, The Great Cicada Ball. Worker 1200 finds her in a remote area beyond the Great Pasture.
This is how the Dung Beetle's home is described in the second book:
... a remote, barren corner of Meadowfield where the ground was dried and cracked and strewn with rocks. The parched earth supported very few trees and those that managed to survive were almost completely void of leaves.
To which Worker 1200 remarks:
"This is certainly not the kind of place I'd want to call home."
