  1. Albert, if you're seeing this, I wonder if you can lend a hand here:

    Poteriophorus sp. The meeting with this insect awakened my interest in beetles, it was in April 2019 in the Philippines.<br />
It climbed on my hand while I was drying myself after a bath in the waterfalls nearby.<br />
The photo has been taken by my wife with her Smartphone.<br />
The body is arround 28 mm long, without rostrum...<br />
I've posted it on two forums but no answer regarding the species.<br />
My investigations lead me to either P. imperatrix or P. regulus.<br />
I saw that Albert Kang has an impressive knowledge of Malaysian insects, he could maybe help me ? Geotagged,Philippines,Spring

  2. That's incredible! Those projections, or whatever they are called, are so cool! They make it look like it has a fungal infection. Posted 3 years ago
