Margined Blister Beetle - Epicauta funebris
Copyright © 2007 Jim McClarin

Margined Blister Beetle - Epicauta funebris
Nashua, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, USA
July 11, 2007
Size: about 15 mm
This beetle fell on its back repeatedly revealing its ventral vestiture but was so quick to right itself that this was the only glimpse I captured in umpteen tries.
