BeetlesLarge Bug in MA
This was taken in Gardner, MA and I’ve never seen one of these
before. What is it??

Hi Lori,
It is definitely a Blister Beetle in the family Meloidae,
but we are not certain of the genus. It looks most like the
Oil Beetles in the genus Meloe, and there is one image on
BugGuide
that looks quite close. We will see if Eric Eaton can assist.
