Sign In to followThank you ornithoptera80, you are right! So glad to know. Thank you Mark and Neil, ornithoptera has given us a species name, and its a major pest!
What a gorgeous series Kel! I love the ones with the hairs!
Congratulations Richard, wonderful photos!
Wow Brian! Really amazing. I wonder if they've ever done a plaster copy of one of these nests (where they pour plaster or hot metal into the nest, let it harden and then dig it up).
Sure wish I could see this better, its silhouette looks like a short-winged Long-horn beetle, Family Cerambycidae. That these are actually beetles is often missed because they look and act like wasps.

A new ant for me, impressive!
Gorgeous lethal fellow.
Brian, Hi, would you have a look at some of the minute tree holes in your forests to see if these kinds of micro fungi are growing there?
Hi Kara. This little Plant Bug is in the Family Miridae.
