I think these are soldier beetles, but I'm not sure which kind exactly. Nice capture. Posted 13 years ago

  Soldier beetle indeed. The Rhagonycha fulva (kleine rode weekschild) looks exactly like these and is the very common one, so I guess these are that specie too. Posted 13 years ago, modified 13 years ago

Ahem, looks like spring time to me;) great shot, ants move along a lot so it takes great timing. Posted 13 years ago

I love the purple background. Definitely the most romantic of the (apparently popular) red soldier beetle mating shots :) Posted 11 years ago

Sorry, but I've removed the ID on these - it is certainly not Rhagonycha fulva. What it _is_ - I'm afraid I can't say. Can't even readily find a decent checklist for the Cantharidae of Israel :o( Will try to find out more, but don't hold your breath ... Cheers, Arp Posted 7 years ago
