The red milkweed beetle (Tetraopes tetrophthalmus) is a beetle in the family Cerambycidae. The milkweed beetle, a herbivore, is given this name because they are generally host specific to milkweed plants (genus Asclepias). When startled, the beetles make a shrill noise. When interacting with another beetle, they make a 'purring' noise. The red and black coloring are aposematic, advertising the beetles' inedibility. There are many milkweed-eating species of insect that use the toxins contained in the plant as a chemical defense. Red milkweed beetles lay egg-clutches in mid-summer near the roots of the milkweed.
