What’s this bug?
Dear WTB,
My brother and I spotted this beautiful beetle near Munson Falls, on the Oregon Coast. We are wondering what kind it is? Thanks,
Sarah Kanz
Hi Sarah,
Your beetle is a Ground Beetle, Scaphinotus angusticollis. We identified it on BugGuide.

This was the first page I found that finally solidified my ID of Pasimachus depressus, so I thought I’d share the video I took of one at my farm in De Leon Springs brutalizing a grub. Enjoy!
