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 🙂
I like that! 🙂
Very nice… Probably my favorite tribe of insects.
