Hi Marcello,
Wonderful close up picture. The image is very sharp and color clarity is perfect. Nice seeing pollens all over the body of this Bee Beetle. Happy New Year to you.

Buongiorno Marcello,
you start this NEW YEAR with a sunny and bright picture showing a Trichius species which has been rarely if at all posted to TN. Your presentation focuses exactly on the beetle and shows the characteristic and distinguished colour pattern of the beetle. Pollen can be identified on the elytrae very clearly due to the high sharpness you achieved.
In 2007, you have enriched the insect scene at TN significantly and I always like to see your 'small' masterworks characterized by pleasant colours, excellent sharpness and beautiful composition.
All the best wishes to you and your family for 2008,
Peter

Hello Marcello,
I recognise this little fellow that's always nice to come across! He looks very busy here picking up lots of pollen from the pretty flower. Excellent sharpness and fine colours in this fine composition.
TFS and best wishes, Ulla

Hola Marcello, en mis guías tampoco la encontré. Te mando unos enlaces ya que coinciden con mi fotografía y creo que es la misma especie.
Tu fotografía es impresionante por enfoque, luz , colores y textura, ademas las plantas y colores que la rodean hace que sea una toma especial. Un abrazo: J. Ignasi
