Scarab BeetlesWhat’s this jaunty fellows name?
Found him on a cluster of white flowers, dragging his back legs behind him as he browsed. Nice sunny day, middle of June in northwest Georgia.
Your beetle is a Delta Flower Scarab, Trigonopeltastes delta. The Delta refers to the letter of the Greek alphabet, and the similarity of the markings on the pronotum to the letter.
