In the last few days, I've noticed some eggplant leaves were completely skeletonized. Never saw anything on it and thought perhaps I should check at night. Just found this guy, again.
I took this pic about 3 weeks ago and wish I had posted it then.
Rose Chafer.
Rose chafer looks about right but several sites specifically mention its red legs, and the antennae are different from this pic. http://bugguide.net/node/view/4108
My bug is just shy of 1" long, mouth to tail. Maybe a close relative or juvenile?
It's a blister beetle.
I saw several that look close. Which one, do you think?
Difficult to be certain, possibly this one - http://www.pbase.com/tmurray74/image/46521098
I think you've got it!
