Paropsis_variegata_BillyBore This beetle is strongly speckled like many allied species are.<br /> This is my first sighting of this species and if you check the links, the only image available is a dead one I took from the pinned museum collection for reference purposes. <br /> There are two more members of Paropsis genus for Victoria which I will target this season and about three rare ones that I do not realistically expect to find.
