-Phanaeus vindex-

[LittleMan]

Well, I found a male Phanaeus vindex(Dung Beetle) in my yard earlier.
This is a really cool beetle... it's sitting here on my desk walking around on my micro fiber cloth... lol
It's about the size of a quarter.

Thanks for looking!

Phanaeus Vindex?

His mom has a penchant for rare first names, eh? :mrgreen:

Cool photo.
You found him, brough him in, photographed him and posted him - and he is STILL there? Or have you carried him back outside by now so he can find his dung heap again (where do you keep THAT in your garden?)

Yeah, I let him go back into the yard...
There are plenty of dogs that find their way into our yard... so I'm sure he will have no problem finding the dung heaps... :lmao:
