yellow-orange/black clerid - Cymatodera puncticollis
Organ Mountains foothills, Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA
August 6, 2006
Size: about 5.2 mm
A small, colorful member of this genus that came to UV lights. I think most of the clerids I found were of this genus, which is quite prevalent in the American Southwest.
