Alabama Beetle ID
Eric, thank you for your bug id assistance. Don't know what I'd do without BugGuide, you folks and really GREAT and a life saver for us out here helping these kids get excited about the underworld of insects!!!! The kids light up when getting the id you send and look at the Guide's page on the bug, they go nuts about the detail information and can put a face on something now that was a just mystery in the wild yesterday!! It is no longer just a bug to them, it is an Orthosoma Brunneum!!!

You're welcome!
I wish I had a resource like BugGuide when I was growing up chasing butterflies in my back yard :-)
