Scarab Beetle

June 30, 2010 by allthingsbiological

Scarab Beetle - Single or double click for size increases.

One of the cats made us aware of this huge beetle, which had gotten onto our screened breezeway between the house and garage. Any taxonomic help would be appreciated. Beetle folk?

Nice, nice, nice photo!

I suggest Osmoderma eremicola.

Thanks, Ted. Somehow I know you’d have a species level classification for me. I wasn’t expecting the link though.

It’s great having a personal taxonomist!
