No, since beetles lack a back bone they are not considered vertebrates. The small portion of species that are considered vertebrates are the ones under the Chordata phylum, they include birds, mammals, reptiles, fish and others. Beetles fall under the Arthropoda phylum with other insects, crabs, and Spiders.
