As I was walking in nature a few days ago, I came across two different fascinating beetles. I can tell you that this is the first time I have photographed such beetles.
One is known as the mango longhorn (Batocera rubus), a species of rubber root borer beetle in the family Cerambycidae; the other is the flower chafer (Taeniodera tricolor), a species of pollinator beetle in the subfamily Cetoniinae. Both are beetle species distributed in tropical forests in South and Southeast Asia.
This is another entry I submitted for the daily #monomad challenge.
These photos are my own, taken with POCO X3 NFC smartphone + external macro lens.
