These interesting critters are very common and yet go unseen by everyone. This one was on a porch chair. They are harmless and are scavengers of dead, rotting plants. Look at the shots closely and note the mandibles are on one end of the bug and the antennae and head on the other so, which end is the front and I wonder how it tears up the food with the mandibles on its anterior end and eats with its opposite end. Amazing critter.
