- Cover photo description:
- Black blister beetle (Epicauta pensylvanica), also known as black aster bug, is a species of burning blister beetle in the family Meloidae. Blister beetles are given this name because of their defensive secretion of a blistering agent, cantharidin. About 7,500 species of the insect are known worldwide. Many are conspicuous and some are aposematically colored, announcing their toxicity to would-be predators.
