Eunota togata
White-cloaked Tiger Beetle
Eunota togata, the White-cloaked Tiger Beetle, is a species of tiger beetle in the family Cicindelidae. It was formerly classified under Cicindela but is now the sole species in the genus Eunota. The species is notable for its strong association with saline habitats, with different subspecies occupying distinct geographic regions and habitat types. Adults are small, measuring 10–13 mm in length, and exhibit variable white coloration on the elytra that gives the species its common name. The species demonstrates classic tiger beetle behaviors including rapid running, quick flight when disturbed, and visual predation.
