Assassin Bugspatriotic beetle?
Was hoping the picture would turn out better – first try with new digital camera. This specimen was gracing our front door for several hours a few nights ago … ( northwest Arkansas, mid August) If you know him I’d like a name. TIA,
Mitch
Hi Mitch,
This is not a beetle. It is an Assassin Bug. Even though the photo is quite blurry, it is undoubtedly Microtomus purcis.
