View of a mayate or beetle, better known as a jicotillo, a predator of the Cempasuchil Flowers in the chinampas of the San Luis Tlaxialtemalco Flower Market, in Xochimilco, Mexico City, prior to its distribution and sale of merchandise on the eve of Memorial Day. Dead in Mexico.
The Cempasuchil Flower symbolizes the Day of the Dead in Mexico. Thanks to its color and aroma, it is one of the most representative elements of offerings to the deceased. Its name comes from the Nahuatl Cempohualxochitl, which means ''Flower with twenty petals.'' (Photo by Gerardo Vieyra/NurPhoto)
