		<description><![CDATA[Sandy found this large, active beetle larva under a rock in the garden on June 4, 2011. It was pretty big at about 3 cm long, but skinny and not enormous. Sam found two more a few days later, so they are certainly very common. It ran and ran and ran, so to have half [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sam and I were turning over rocks on August 1, 2010 and found this fine, large beetle. Those are my fingers it is crawling over, which makes it about an inch (2.5 cm) long. It is very similar to a beetle that I previously posted back in 2007, and tenatively identified as Calosoma calidum (although, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We found this in the yard almost exactly a year ago, on June 21, 2010. It was 13 mm long, a pretty fast runner, and has a lean, predatory sort of look. The body shape, head shape, and slight iridescence lead me to it being one of the Carabids. This is a very large family [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This one looks like a battle-scarred old veteran. I found it near the road, so it is possible that it lost its antenna and fractured a wing cover in an encounter with a passing vehicle[1], not in combat with some predator or prey: Even so, it was pretty spry, I had to move pretty quick [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My, Grandma, what big mandibles you have! This one I did *not* find in the house![1] It was out front, crossing the road[2]. It was strong and fast, and I had to hold onto it pretty firmly to get that face shot. This is a specimen of the genus Calosoma, most likely Calosoma calidum (it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>
