Cicindela hirticollis
Possibly Northeastern Beach Tiger Beetle. Pretty cool looking small beetle, and a new one for me
Beach area
Augustine Beach along the Delaware Canal
I am an endangered species biologist for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and I am the species lead for the Northeastern beach tiger beetle (Cicindela dorsalis dorsalis). This is not the Northeastern beach tiger beetle, but the hairy-necked tiger beetle (C. hirticollis).
