Clerid Beetle feeding on hatching Treehopper nymphs

This small Checkered Beetle was voraciously feeding on Treehopper nymphs just as they were emerging from their eggs. Babies were hatching even as I watched! Since this beetle was only 4 mm in length, it only ate two before leaving the egg mass. Most species of Clerids are predaceous as both larvae and adults. Family Cleridae.
