Bug of the Day

Two longhorned beetles in one night, at opposite ends of the spectrum. On the left, we have the teeny, tiny, Eupogonius tomentosus. No common name, and a really bad haircut ;-). On the right, we have the brown Prionid, Orthosoma brunneum, one of the biggest beetles you will ever see in my part of the world.

For scale, the Eupogonius is resting on a single "wave" of the shingle, while the brown Prionid takes up more than 13 of them (including its antennae).

today’s best bug encounter was this Prionus laticollis. a large longhorn beetle that feeds on dead tree roots, they are one of the largest commonly encountered beetles around here.

some impressive shearing jaws on this lady

my favorite cerambycid trait is their wraparound eyes, which curve from the top of their head around the base of the antenna to the bottom surface of the head.

next time I’m in the milkweed field I’ll try to find another commonly spotted longhorn with even stranger eyes!

What's this? A sabertooth longhorn beetle (Macrodontia cervicornis), which is native to South American rainforests. Bizarre and beautiful, yes?

Bug of the Day

Happy Pollinator Week!

Check out this little longhorned beetle (Analeptura lineola) - there were half a dozen of them going to town on the flowering dogwoods the other day.

"Yet I'm still buried in the mud. Skin and bones and brains and blood."

-San Fermin; The Woods

Here is a Sabertooth Longhorn Beetle (Macrodontia cervicornis) I did with some little secrets in the pattern. They are native to rain forests in central South America. Their scientific name translates to "long tooth" "deer antler." Quiet an appropriate name if you ask me.
