Whatzit-covered bostrichid - Xylobiops basilaris

Whatzit-covered bostrichid - Xylobiops basilaris
Nashua, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, USA
May 31, 2006
Size: 5.2 mm
Came to UV lights on warm, humid night. This is the first view of this beetle through my camera. Amid the pell-mell frenzy of the bug shoot in my light arena I passed this one off as "just" a sco*lytine borer that had some white crud on it.
