Feeding frenzy.
Figeater beetles (Cotinis mutabilis) devouring ripening prickly pears, at the Sierra Vista Community Garden, Sierra Vista, Arizona. Figeaters are a western species, and slightly larger and more shiny and green than the summer Junebugs I grew up with in the southern U.S. (C. nitida). I can't recall ever seeing Junebugs massed together in such numbers.
Etymology note: Cotinis is a transliteration of an Ancient Greek word meaning wild olive tree, used for the beetle's resemblance in size and color to an olive.
We found what I believe is a figeater beetle on our thyme! Sacramento valley, CA. We were stunned by how iridescent it was.
Can anyone confirm that this is a figeater beetle and not something else?
I can definitely confirm it's a figeater. Love these dudes :)
@saltiestseasailor and I rescued this little one from sea water the other day. 🌊🪲
Cotinis mutabilis, também conhecido como besouro comedor de figo (também besouro verde da fruta ou besouro do figo ), é um membro da família dos besouros escaravelhos.

Found this lovely green friend while visiting San Diego - any chance of an ID? I'm not sure they were doing so hot but I didn't want to bother them too much.
It's a figeater! Adult beetles don't live particularly long, so it may have already mated and is at the end of its natural life. And that's okay I'll bet it lived a nice beetle life :)
