Cicindelidia sp. - Cicindelidia sedecimpunctata Nogales, Santa Cruz County, Arizona, USA July 22, 2016 Size: Normal for cicindela
This appears to be a cicindelidia sp. That I saw in extreme southern Arizona earlier this year. In my beginning eyes it looked like c. mellisa, but I could certainly be wrong. Any help you can give is appreciated, and I may have made mistakes as I am new here. if any additional info is needed please let me know. It was found in a large breeding group around several puddles near the border of Mexico in southern AZ. They were found midday after a rain, in a pull-over known to have gray Hawks.
