Eudesma undulata? - Eudesma undulata
Indian Creek, Letcher County, Kentucky, USA
August 8, 2016
Size: 4-5mm
Fungus on Poplar tree stump where beetle was found.
Sadly we had to burn the inside of the stump, I found 2 copper heads laying in the opening and my man found two more the next day and a baby one after he shoveled it out. I don't know what kept me from been bitten I have been inside out this stump!
