Yodo White-bordered Tiger Beetle

Callytron yuasai yuasai

The Yodo white-bordered tiger beetle is a small tiger beetle of sandy beaches and river-mouth flats, with white edging on its wing covers. It runs fast to catch small insects, while larvae wait for prey in burrows dug in sand. A habitat in Wakayama is a Natural Monument, valuable as natural beaches and tidal flats decline.
