		<description><![CDATA[I found this beetle in the bare ground next to our garage on August 10. It is similar, but not identical, to some that we found eating a dead mouse about three years ago: This is definitely one of the Sexton Beetles, genus Nicrophorus, which are large and pretty distinctively colored carrion beetles. They are [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[S_ found this large (probably 2 cm long), distinctive beetle in front of our garage on June 12. It is very clearly an American Carrion Beetle, Necrophila americana. I actually think that this beetle species has already appeared on this site, as a larva. They have sensitive-looking antennae which would be very helpful for sniffing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A few weeks ago, I posted pictures of a predatory beetle, and mentioned that I&#8217;d like to get a picture of the larva of that beetle, because they were pretty wicked-looking[1]. Well, here&#8217;s a nice example, which I found crawling across the kitchen floor[2]. Correction: this is evidently some type of carrion beetle (see comment [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Aaahh! Zombie Mouse! OK, so on Wednesday, June 13[1], there was some stuff I had to haul out of the basement. The basement has one of those outdoor cellar entrances, with a slanting hatchway covering a set of concrete steps leading down. Since this was the best way to haul out bulky things, I opened [...]]]></description>
