| ... | ||
| A common and distinctive Ground Beetle, which is frequent in damp and marshy areas. Digital photography brings out the best of this beetle's colours, otherwise not casually visible with the naked eye. When magnified, this (and other Elaphrus species) appear almost studded with Sapphires. Length 8-9mm. The one photographed was found underneath moss at Eakring Flash in early October 2008. | ||
