A few weeks ago I was invited to join a Berkeley entomology class out in the field for the weekend. Our destination was the ಬ್ಲೂ ಓಕ್ ರಾಂಚ್ ರಿಸರ್ವ್; one of the newest reserves to the University of California system located just outside of San Jose on Mount Hamilton (map below). It was a joint spider and beetle class trip, hosted by Charles Griswold ಮತ್ತು Dave Kavanaugh respectively. And despite a frost on Saturday night we managed to find some interesting insects. You’ve already seen my images of the Scaphinotus (Carabidae), but here is a larger set of images from both myself and colleague and fellow blogger ತಮಸ್ SZUTA.
