The genus Lytta (Lytta nutalli and L. versicatoria) are large green blister beetles found in the PNW and Canada. Lytta versicatoria L. is a cosmopolitan species originally from Europe which is the commercial source of Cantharidin known as the Spanish fly. L. nutalli is known from Canola in Canada.
Blister beetles are pests of home garden flowers, often damaging Iris and other showy flowers in the late spring. Since they are large chewing beetles, home garden pesticides are effective when needed. Read and follow labels.
