[edit] Please use second-level headings

The Manual of Style indicates that headings should start with "==" (i.e. they should be second-level headings), not "===". Thanks! --Diberri | Talk 22:38, Oct 5, 2004 (UTC)

OK, no problem; my thinking was that "==" headers were a bit heavy given the relatively small amount of text, ref. the notes in the Manual of Style "Overuse of sub-headings should be avoided, as it can make the article look cluttered. Short paragraphs and single sentences generally do not warrant their own sub-heading" and "In circumstances where there is not enough text to justify a sub-heading, it may be preferable to use bolded text or bullet points within a section instead of using sub-headings" - MPF 10:24, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Is map correct

If the origin of the beetle is Mexico, why does the distribution map show it as the Colorado state? jrbray

[edit] Identification

Because of the stripes I thought this might be a colorado beetle, but the red head doesn't fit. If you recognise it could you add any info to the photo's page? Thanks. DirkvdM 18:32, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
