A cluster of male Flower Longhorn Beetles all trying to mate with a female. They were clinging together and moving in unison - until half the group fell off!

This is a female with a number of males trying to mate - beetle mania, indeed:>). They look like one of the longhorn beetles but can't bet my life on it. Great shot, Doris! V/F

Thanks for the info Carol and for the bugguide link in your second comment. I think you nailed it! I am changing the description to indicate that they are Flower Longhorn beetles. This is great!
