This image was made in Cathedral Grove on Vancouver Island. The bunchberry is a common forest cover around coastal British Columbia. The original purpose of this image was simply to identify the beetle with the vibrant red wings. We still haven't done this! If you can identify this beastie, please send us an e-mail at the address on the bottom of the page.
