Hi, I'm not sure if this is Ontholestes murinus, Tesselatus or Haroldi. My bet is on Tesselatus. Correct? Thank you, Andr Andre Jas attached the following image: [73.49Kb] Edited by Andre Jas on 12-10-2006 20:11 |

Yes Ontholestes tesselatus is correct. The candidate on cow dung is tesselatus too. You can find all species in the beetle gallery - compare the shape of the pronotum and colour of the legs.

Thanks Frank, I ALWAYS look in your galleries first and therefore I betted on tesselatus, but wasn't sure. Ans since you've seen 'm all (so to speak) you're the man to ask. Andr |
