very good capture of insect. The sharp focus is very nice and the blurred background has enhanced the image.

Hello Tommaso,
It's a nice shot of Trichodes apiarius.
I think it would be better to make a bigger closeup or at least frame it tighter to remove the beetle from the center of the picture.
Anyway, it has nice colours and good details.
WELL DONE!

Hello Tommaso,
Yes, as Monika said this is a member of genus Trichodes (family Cleridae), however it is not T. apiarius (differently looking stripes). There are several species of that genus in Europe. I think this one is Trichodes leucopsideus.
Best greetings,
Michal
