Black Beetle On Christmas Palm - Elateropsis scabrosus

Black Beetle On Christmas Palm - Elateropsis scabrosus
Big Pine Key, Monroe County, Florida, USA
September 29, 2007
Size: 1 1/2 inches.

Nice!
I've been to Florida several times looking for this species (among others). I didn't know they were out this late in the year.

Wow!
A wonderful specimen of Elateropsis scabrosus Gahan, 1890 (Cerambycidae Prioninae Mallaspini). What a luck to bump into it!
