Green Lynx spider & genus Belotus beetle - Belotus
Horseshoe Bend, Weatherford, Parker County, Texas, USA
July 22, 2009
Size: 1/2"
This insect crawled under the Green Lynx spider to the center of the Bull Nettle flower. The spider twitched once, but did not go for the insect. ID help for the insect is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Is there a problem?
Why was this moved? Is there something wrong with my picture? I know what the spider is...I wanted to know what the other insect is.

My mistake.
I didn't read the comment. Sorry. Your insect is a beetle.

Ok...
Would you please move it back to ID request? I would like to know what kind of beetle. Thanks

It doesn't need to be in ID Request
it will get just as much attention here (maybe more).
