This picture was taken by my friend in Puerto Rico. We were curious what kind of beetle this is and if it is indigenous to the island.

Toe-Biter

Dear Giancarlo,
This Toe-Biter is a Giant Water Bug, not a beetle.  In addition to being aquatic, they are capable of flight and they are attracted to lights.  It is indigenous to Puerto Rico.
