Flower Longhorn - Brachysomida bivittata
Machias, Washington County, Maine, USA
July 5, 2009
Size: 10mm
This beetle was mating with this other one that has a totally different color pattern.

color is no impediment to healthy mating
Moved from Flower Longhorns.

 
Male and female
I wonder if the color difference means these beetles are dimorphic?

 
think so -- will check
do you have Yanega's book? (1) ...'cuz i don't -- but will ask around

 
The only beetle book
I have is Whites (1).
