A portrait photo of the face of a reddish brown and yellow beetle resting on light blue siding. The beetle has reddish brown antennae, legs and head. It's eyes are black with a bronze sheen. It's pronotum, the area just behind the head, is reddish brown with yellow edges. The elytra, the hardened wing coverings, are just out of focus but are black, tan, and yellow

A photo of the beetle from above, showing that the head and pronotum are round with yellow mottling around the edges of the reddish brown. The elytra are elongated and have yellow markings on black at the front, tanish red markings alternating with black markings on the middle/rear.
