Crioprosopus rimosus
Beautiful Mesquite Borer
Crioprosopus rimosus is a longhorn beetle (Cerambycidae) native to southwestern North America and Mexico. The species is known from scattered records in the United States (Arizona) and Mexico. It is associated with mesquite and other woody legumes, with larvae developing in living or stressed host trees. Adults are large, striking beetles with reddish coloration. The species appears to be genuinely uncommon rather than simply under-collected, though it can be attracted to fermenting baits.
Plebejus anna
Anna's blue
Plebejus anna, commonly known as Anna's blue, is a North American butterfly species in the family Lycaenidae. It was formerly considered conspecific with the northern blue (Plebejus idas) but is now recognized as a distinct species. The butterfly exhibits sexual dimorphism in wing coloration and is univoltine, with adults active during summer months.
