Twelve-spotted Tiger Beetle
I found the Twelve-spotted Tiger Beetle (Cicindela duodecimguttata) with a bunch of Bronzed Tiger Beetles on a beach of the Ottawa River at Andrew Haydon Park, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. He sticks out from the rest since he appears to be much darker.
''Cicindela duodecimguttata'', commonly known as the twelve-spotted tiger beetle, is a species of tiger beetle that is 12–15 millimetres long and is dark brown to black. In most of the beetles in the species, there are twelve spots on the elytra. The species are commonly found along rivers, moist trails, roads, and paths.
