Click Beetle (Conoderus bellus) in my backyard earlier this month. The larvae of this Click Beetle (known as wireworms) feed on tobacco plants, causing them to be a pest to farmers. The scientific name means "Beautiful Cone-necked Beetle" and I would certainly agree. . . . . . . . #nature #ontario #conoderus #conoderusbellus #clickbeetle #clickbeetles #beetlesofinstagram #insects_of_our_world #invert_macro #macrobeetle #beetles #norfolkwild #blognorfolk #simcoeontario (at Simcoe, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMy8qWeJU1L/?igshid=fninrrdfntzf
