Antlike longhorn - Cyrtophorus verrucosus
Copyright © 2006 Jim McClarin

Antlike longhorn - Cyrtophorus verrucosus
Nashua, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, USA
June 6, 2006
Size: about 9 mm
Showing a little color on the abdomenal tergites. The testaceous blur of the beetle in flight would suddenly disappear when the beetle lands and closes its elytra, thereby protecting it to some extent against pursuing predators such as birds.
