Wedge-shaped Beetle - Macrosiagon - male

Wedge-shaped Beetle - Macrosiagon - Male
Fort Bragg, Cumberland County, North Carolina, USA
August 7, 2004

Macrosiagon sp., male
Lynette-

Unfortunately, this one is pretty much impossible to determine given the photo. My guess is an even darker version of M. pectinata than photo 12701, but I can't rule out an entirely melanic specimen of M. cruenta. A good illustration of how maddeningly variable these things are, though!

cheers,

zack
