Click Beetle (Danosoma obtectum)
Danosoma obtectum (Say, 1839). Thanks to Blaine Mathison for providing the species determination on bugguide. Found at Wazee Lake Recreation Area in west central Wisconsin. Jackson County, Wisconsin, USA.
Found in pine barrens habitat. It was found crawling on a felled pine tree (probably jack pine). It froze in place when it sensed my presence. Pretty well camouflaged against those bark scales.
Single exposure, moderately cropped, handheld, in situ. Canon MT-24EX flash unit, Ian McConnachie diffuser.
