Description
I'm not certain of his Latin name, and await an ID from the experts on Flickr.
It could be a Violet Ground Beetle, but it was a bit small and I don't think they have red legs.

It could still be a Violet Ground Beetle. After all, you don't expect them to wear the same thing everyday. Red is a great color for Autumn. I love the detail on its back.

A really beautiful Macro. Looks like such one I once found in my sock, that I was wearing :D It was 2½ cm long. I am glad I am not hysterical about insects :)

I've no idea of its name either but it's a great capture of him!

Possibly an Oriental Beetle, as portrayed in this sharp shot, especially with that parallel line raster on its thorax, Andrea.

It looks like a 'Sidewalk Carabid' but there are so many different beetles only an expert can tell. Nice shot though, I rather like these little fellows!
