Orange and Black Beetle (Necrophorus investigator) A TAXI that has Parasites passengers Jn15-01


Photographed on 06 15 2016 using Canon EOS 400D SLR Digital Camera and Tamron Tele Macro lens at about 1 metre above the insect.
The following information was copied from Wikipedia, © Respected.
Burying beetles or sexton beetles (genus Nicrophorus) are the best-known members of the family Silphidae (carrion beetles). Most of these beetles are black with red markings on the elytra (forewings). Burying beetles are true to their name—they bury the carcasses of small vertebrates such as birds and rodents as a food source for their larvae. They are unusual among insects in that both the male and female parents take care of the brood. They are carnivores.
