Your letter to the bugman: Its hard to see in the picture, but its head is fuzzy and its antennae appear to be segmented. I searched tirelessly on the internet to indentify this guy but couldnt figure out if its a cockroach, beetle, or wasp.
How you want your letter signed: Thank you for your help, Ayla.
Dear Ayla,
The Lion Beetle, Ulochaetes leoninus, looks much more like a bee than it resembles other members of the Long Horned Borer Beetle family Cerambycidae.
