Nutall's blister beetle


I saw this beetle in a ditch beside a grid road in southeastern Saskatchewan. I needed an app to identify it as Nutall's blister beetle. I have yet to learn why it's called a blister beetle.

Blister beetles are beetles in the family Meloidae. They are named for the cantharidin toxin found in their bodily fluids, which can induce blisters on human skin and life-threatening inflammations in horses and animals.
Blister beetles are attracted to lights at night, so that is one common way by which they are encountered by people. The irritation and blisters that form can be painful but usually are not life-threatening.
