Dorcatoma - Dorcatoma pallicornis

Dorcatoma - Dorcatoma pallicornis
Guelph, Wellington, Ontario, Canada
March 10, 2007
Size: 2 mm
On its back, with antennae extended and legs reaching out for something to grab onto (but of course, where wasn't any!) This shot also shows some of the mouthparts. This was a very active beetle - hard to get clear pictures!
