Dynastes Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I know this is considered one of the ugly jewel scarabs but it is a very pretty and metallic beetle when alive. I live up north and this is the first adult I've ever caught. I found another one the next evening. Last time I saw any here was about 11 years ago when I found some larvae in a rotten stump root in my lawn from a long dead tree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynastes Posted July 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 There's metallic green on the head and joints and the entire underside is metallic green-black but it just doesn't show up in photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibrakeforbugs Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 Wow, pretty! I certainly wouldn't put that in the "ugly" category!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
