Scarab on Leaf - Lechorodius terminalis
Near Ruraldale, Upshur County, West Virginia, USA
November 27, 2005
I can't seem to come up with an ID for this nice Scarab. Size not recorded, unfortunately. Surely Scarabaeinae, though not found on dung. ID help appreciated.

Moved
Moved from Scarab Beetles. It may be possible to get a species name for this - I recognize it, but just can't remember off hand, maybe A. bicolor [not obvious from name dark dorsally, light ventrally] - will have to compare.

Aphodiine Dung Beetle
Subfamily Aphodiinae of the Scarab family. Maybe Philip can ID further.
