Field Notes

Description:

A beetle with a black body that has a reflective sheen to it, and also vibrant green markings and highlights.

Habitat:

A tiny hillside town just outside of Antigua, Guatemala. The system is not quite tropical, and is at a high enough altitude to be chilly at night - and it rains nearly every day in the winter.
