I took a pic of a STRANGE critter this year at Kielie Krankie...after much research it turned out to be a "moldy {mouldy} beetle".
Never heard of such a thing before. Looks like yours is equally WEIRD.
Too busy w/ holidays, KTP birds, and cheetahs, but will get to the insects next year

You can just add it to nan's, like we did w/ the bird ref. book, etc. I have lots of insect pics, but they have probably been written up already...do I just post the pics here, Toko, and you will move them appropriately? Thanks.

Post them here or do a new topic: "insects to add" or under any other heading you like. Creative thinking always welcome
Does not matter, as you like
