The Internet says it’s an oil beetle. I’ve never seen one of those before.
It looks tike some ant but with big butt
Oh my God, Becky. Look at her butt!
This looks like a painting
This is the greatest news I’ve heard all day!
Is it that ass-blaster one?
Looking at that thing I would have assumed it’s a wasp. Weird beetle.
This is almost too interesting
Cool find, thanks for sharing!
Isn’t it a queen ant with crapy image compression/enhancements? If I remember correctly beetles have the torax fusioned with the abdomen…
Let me educate myself, beetles have them differentiated… though I think abdomen had hardened wings or alike to be a beetle… I am open for reeducation about these details
Look up Meloe violaceus
is the image edited ? looks like it , can you post original ?

Phone isn’t letting me add the raw image directly, but that link goes to it.
thanks
That looks like auto sharpening that a lot of modern phone cameras do which messes up zoomed images like this. Happens with my phone camera too it’s really annoying

One of the few beetles that can actually kill a human.
