There is a little beetle bug
Who lives in Toledo,
Originally from Quebec
But there's more that you don't know.
One day he crawled inside a case
Which went upon a plane,
And when he left his hiding place
He found himself in Spain.

Carabus nemoralis. Several around the site.
Phosphuga atrata. Black Snail Beetle. Formerly Silpha atrata.
Blue Helops Beetle. Helops caeruleus. Moderately abundant
The beetles were active too. Some of the bigger ones here. #beetles.
a beetle on the trunk of a tree. it is black with a reddish-orange pronotum that has a black spot in the center. its body is covered in short white hairs, and true to the family name it has rather large, long antennae. Stenosphenus notatus, Manassas VA
another beetle on a tree trunk - same species and tree as the previous beetle, but this one has a smaller black spot in the center of the orange pronotum
another beetle on a tree trunk, this one from about a month ago - a firefly in the genus Photinus, a fairly common sighting on trees this time of year

Bookmark shaped drawing of a red soldier beetle and black ant.
Drawing of a common red soldier beetle and a an ant. Another few months before my favourite soldier beetles will be out and about. #soldierbeetle #beetles #biodiversity #ant #drawing
a close-up of a light blue lupine blossom, with a large hairy beetle clinging to its side while chewing on it, and hiding in the shade of the plant, the two pieces together forming a perfect circular shape, like a yin yang
a close-up of another large furry beetle, barely caught on a plant but all legs splayed out looking like he's flying through the air making a giant dive; rusty red abdomen, black rest of his body, and nice sheen reflecting the surrounding sunlight
a bloom of some plant whose identity I read about while there but don't presently recall, but was ONLY there: large air-filled pods in a vaguely pepper shape, a bit of fuzz on them, and skin colored a mottled patchwork of red & yellow
a close-up of a poppy blossom, with violent orange petals, and its interior detail looking very "Opium": yellow pistils, an enticing green center, from which grows a fuzzy white ball; one single strand of spiderweb reaches from center to end, and some tiny bug has alit on the center
as we start to tip toward spring, I'm actually getting close to wrapping up all my old pre-PNW California highlights for #ThrowbackThursday ! but a few seasonally-appropriate #Bloomscrolling things, thes from Tule Elk Reserve in CA, April 2023

Beedle (wide-eyed): Wait! That scent! Do you have a BEETLE!?! Beedle: OH I DO LOVE BEETLES (no idea why though), SO I WOULD PAY MY ENTIRE BUDGET FOR SOME OR ALL OF YOUR BEAUTIFUL B- Link (off camera) points a gun at Beedle, loading it with a CLICK. Link (to a panicked Beedle): No deal, bug boy. Just shut your trap, take my gemstones, sell me some arrows, and NEVER ask for my beetles again.

It's not very often you go for a walk at this time of year and come back with nothing! Well, that's what happened to me this morning. However, the day was saved by this Dermestes sp larva, found in the stairwell of our tenement.

A vane trap on ~2m poles. Made of black twin-wall plastic board.
Hey @forestryengland.bsky.social or any forestry #entomologists here, does anyone know what this vane trap is monitoring in Wendover Woods in the Chilterns? Maybe longhorn #beetles?
There is a small card, presumably for a pheromone attractant.

HAPPY PUPATION DAY!!! Guys I'm so unreasonably excited. Last week I accidentally broke the pupal chamber of my biggest grub. I've been so worried - made a damp paper towel cover for the chamber and check on him every few days. WELL TODAY HE'S A PUPA!! My heart is racing.

Escarabajo de gran tamaño, con un abdomen especialmente largo.
El escarabajo titán (Titanus giganteus) supera los 17 cm de longitud, aunque a cambio tiene alas subdesarrolladas que le impiden volar. Vive en las selvas antiguas del neotrópico, alimentándose sus larvas de la madera podrida. En cambio, los adultos beben y […]
