Cicindela punctulata
Tiger beetle
Sandy/rocky path surrounded by a dry, grassy area at the beginning of Hog Pond Trail in the Withlacoochee State Forest.
Oohh I caught one of these Tiger Beetles a few weeks ago. They are scary for their fast twitchy movement.
I think you're right about Cicindela punctulata; the markings and range seem to be correct at least. Thank you!
Could be this one http://bugguide.net/node/view/578 , but kindly confirm with others :)
