Got Another New Beetle
I'd had several kinds of metallic wood-boring beetles but never a bright yellow & black one. Found it on dried lemon beebalm. It was nice enough to stay put for a little photo session. So many insect species, this will never get boring. This one has no common name & I could not find much info on it.
