Your letter to the bugman:  Hi! This handsome fella was crawling around on the sidewalk in my neighborhood the other morning and I’d love to know what it is. He kind of looks like a cross between a centipede and a beetle. Thank you for sharing your love of our wriggling insect friends!
How you want your letter signed:  E in Madison

I forgot to mention that he was about 3” long.

“Handsome” Ground Beetle Larva

Dear E in Madison,
Thanks for your kind words and thanks for using the word “handsome” to describe this Ground Beetle larva.  Just last week Daniel dug up a similar Ground Beetle larva and he posted an image to What’s That Bug?
