Prionocerid Beetle, Female

Prionocerus bicolor, Redtenbacher, 1868

Notes:

While photographing some daselflies, spotted this bug coming down onto this twig, spent just few seconds, that too immediately hiding from me. Managed just two shots. Regret not to use the continuous shot function of the camera. Note for others.
