Less than a cm. Body covered in green dust. Resembles ?cockroach.
Found on a tree trunk at Phansad WLS
Is it moulting?
yes.. its was powdery green and I didn't touch it. It didn't move. Possibly dead.Thanks ForestDragon & Keithp2012.
Was it moving? If not I think it's dead with mold all over
Oh wow! acewings.ajay, this cockroach is not moulting but has been infected with a fungus. If it is not dead yet, it will be soon! Very, very interesting!
