double trouble

Not strictly doubles though they do each have two colours..red & black and blue & red

Not a clue on their names, but I do know they're hungrily eating their way through our
huge Cottonwood tree.

This is "Doubling up in May"

Wow! They are gorgeous! Some sort of nymphs of some kind, I suppose. they remind me of our stink bug nymphs, only different colors. Really nice! V

Nice shot...these are pretty little bugs but I guess not a welcomed guess.
Bugguide.net has identification but I believe it is for N.Amer. bugs and insects...but you could post, maybe someone would know...nothing in my field guide. Good shot.

Beautiful capture. Probably not a good thing for the cottonwood though lol

I would start my search with the insect genus Hemiptera. Great detail.

Wonderful photogenic pests.

They do look like team players. What is next after the cottonwood? Very nice colors Laine.

Perhaps no doubles but certainly troubles :) Great shot Laine. V

Don't know what they are....is there anything you can do?
Sue Anne26-May-2009 01:47
Thats a lot of shiny beetles. They sure are a nuisance.
Guest 26-May-2009 01:20

The beetle invasion.

Very colorful image. Although the way they are vandalizing that cottonwood, they do not seem to be welcome guests.
