Blast from the past Two-lined Leather-wing, Two-lined Cantharid - Atalantycha bilineata (syn. Ancistronycha bilineata, length 7.5 mm) Also posted at: <a href="https://bugguide.net/node/view/3274" rel="noreferrer nofollow">bugguide.net/node/view/3274</a> References - BugGuide <a href="https://bugguide.net/node/view/3114" rel="noreferrer nofollow">bugguide.net/node/view/3114</a> - Dillon and Dillon, A Manual of Common Beetles of Eastern North America (Row, Peterson, and Company, 1961), p. 264, plate 26(12) Photo taken with an early generation digital SLR, the Canon 10D (6MP sensor). If I was careful not to push the ISO, images from this camera were just fine! That Tamron macro lens was excellent--I only traded it in for a Canon later because it tended to get grit caught in the barrel as it extended. I believe this to be the first image of a living specimen of this species, at least the first one that was widely accessible. I identified it based on Dillon and Dillon's guide.

The North Carolina Grassroots Science Museums Collaborative is a group of small, community-based science museums located throughout the state of North Carolina. The collaborative was established in 1993 as a way for these museums to share resources and knowledge, and to promote science education in their local communities.

The collaborative is headquartered in Raleigh, NC and provides a range of services to its member museums, including professional development opportunities for staff and volunteers, funding and grant support, and collaborative marketing efforts. The collaborative also hosts an annual conference for its members, which allows them to come together to share ideas and best practices.

The member museums of the North Carolina Grassroots Science Museums Collaborative vary in size and scope, but all are focused on providing hands-on, interactive experiences for visitors of all ages. Some museums are housed in historic buildings, while others are located in more modern facilities.
