  1. hi Qixia, welcome to JungleDragon!

    I see you requested the species "longhorn beetle" to be created, but that term is not specific enough, as there are over 20,000 different species of longhorn beetles. Do you know which one this is?

    1. It's best to speak english if you can manage. For others I think it says "Very nice ... beetles" (thanks to online translation:)) Posted 10 years ago
      1. Actually, it said beautiful beetles. I try to manage the best I can with different languages. I apologize if you thought I was leaving others out of the conversation but it was meant for the person who posted the picture and I noted the title was in Chinois (Chinese I mean). I agree online translation is wonderful. Thank you. Posted 10 years ago, modified 10 years ago
  3. Do you have a top view of the wings of the beetle? Posted 10 years ago
  4. I love the way the beetle is photographed in this picture. Beautiful. Thank you for sharing. Posted 10 years ago, modified 10 years ago
  5. This could be either Anoplophora glabripennis or Anoplophora chinensis. They are very similar and I need a top view to be sure it is either of them. Posted 10 years ago

The Asian long-horned beetle , also known as the starry sky, sky beetle, or ALB, is a species native to eastern China, Japan, and Korea. This species has now been accidentally introduced into the United States, where it was first discovered in 1996, as well as Canada, Trinidad, and several countries in Europe, including Austria, France, Germany, Italy, and the UK. This beetle is believed to have been spread from Asia in solid wood packaging material.
