I'm on a mission to find as many Tiger Beetles as I can this year.
Today: Purple and Oblique-lined TBs (Cicindela purpurea and C. tranquebarica) 😊 .
They are small predators (about 1 cm long) with scary mouthparts, who can run at up to 9 km/h (5.6 mph)! Match that!

The Ornate Checker Beetle (Trichodes ornatus) starts life as an egg inside a flower! After hatching, its larvae hitch a ride on bees or wasps to their nests, where they feed on host larvae. After overwintering, they pupate and emerge as colorful adults, living up to two months.
