Blister Beetle (Pseudomeloe sp.)
Author's comments:
Tras la sugerencia de ID por parte de Lucas Rubio realicé una consulta con Mauricio Cid-Arcos autor de NOTAS DISTRIBUCIONALES DE PSEUDOMELOE ANDENSIS (GUÉRIN-MÉNEVILLE) [COLEOPTERA: MELOIDAE] EN CHILE aportando las mismas fotos. Su respuesta "Puede que sea el insecto que es identificado como andensis en Argentina, pero que no coincide con la especie. Porque tiene manchas amarillas. En las tibias. Le recomendaría dejarlo como pseudomeloe sp."
