This beetle is inside the stage rXXX.udas packs It's model file in this specific area is r50b_27.BIN + r50b_28.TPL, and it has 3 animation FCV files after these 2 files. This beetle is not considered an enemy by the game, just a dynamic stage object (you can't kill it). The bio4.exe file contains the position they appear (you can hexedit it but it's really hard to locate the exact bytes. And there's no way you can make this beetle appear in areas where it is not there by default.
The beetle rooms are r106, r11f, r225, r31b, r507 and r50b if I'm not mistaken

When I was exploring the PMDs models of the 2007 edition back who knows when, I actually found this model and texture but it was placed in the folder for (Obm) stage models such as the Truck and Car like in the beginning so I concluded this beetle was just a left over asset or just simply never used. Its amazing even all these years later Im still learning small stuff like this!
Resident Evil 4 is definitely one of Shinji Mikami masterpieces.
Anyway Nice Stuff! Keep on learning and discovering! Love to see stuff like this!

Yea this game never fails to amaze me after 17 years with these discoveries.. Also the way i found it its quite funny,i accidentally swapped the .BIN file of e50b with r11e and it turned into a boulder.. when i saw it,I was like: uuhm what? And then the boulder flew away in the sky hahaha
