BotW: Sphaeroderus

Posted on 16 September 2013 by David Maddison

At last, a beetle of the week!  However, it’s been so long since the last one that I should probably rename the feature to be “beetle of the season”, or “beetle of whenever”.

Here’s a beautiful Sphaeroderus from North Carolina.  These beetles are snail eaters.

    A beauty!

    “Beetle of The Whenever,” in particular, to keep it as botw 🙂
