Quoting:Please help us build a guide to caterpillars and butterflies in BugFiles with your photos, descriptions, and ZIP code reports!
This invitation to upload pictures to Bug Files is in the Hummingbird and Butterfly Gardening forum, and the Garden Pests and Diseases forum has a similar one. Maybe it would help to have a similarly worded invitation in the Bug and Insect ID forum page. Just an idea.
That's a great picture. I see you have posted this in the ID forum too. Offhand I'd say it's a beetle, maybe a tiger beetle in the family Cerambycidae... probably someone there will have a better idea of what it is.
