Field Notes

Description:

About 1in long, hard black outer shell, yellow underbelly. Looks like it has fuzzy yellow underarms.

I'm not 100% sold on this ID which I found on my own research... the fuzzy yellow underbelly is what gets me, didn't see any in bugguide like that.

Habitat:

West Central GA
