Hello everybody,

I need support; a few days ago I found this bug in striking yellow and black. I have no idea where to begin their taxonomic classification. I had not seen before in my region.

Are grateful for any support for ID.

Cheers / thanks

Jesús

02-07-09, thanks to Ivan (Argus), told me that one can be under Cantharidae and I think that's correct. Still can not get accurate ID, but the morphological characteristics match those soldier beetles.

Hello Jesús,
A superb macro taken from a fine dorsal POV with great sharpness and colours.
I believe this may belong to the family Cantharidae, Solder beetles and Fireflies. I hope that may help you to find an ID.
Thanks and best regards,
Ivan

Bonjour Jesus,
This is a very striking Cantharidae with this two colored carapace. The picture is well taken with excellent sharpness and natural coloring.
Very funny to see the little black spot on the neck-shield. Well done
