| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
I found this rather interesting beetle foraging amongst the flowers of the sweet chestnut trees in my garden. It is slightly larger than the 'Bee Bug' Trachius fasciatus but looking very similar with its hairy body. I have spent a long time trying to find out what it is as I think it important to be as informative as possible for fellow 'trekkers'! The closest I have come to an identity is Valgus hemipterus, but I am not absolutely sure. Is there an 'expert' out there??? HELP please!
Very little PP work, just a slight crop and frame & resize.
Thanks for all your comments. |
