Thanks bayucca, the other Beetle was larger in size & had different colouring, though the markings were similar
Yep. Those white spots all match up and range is good too.
Thanks Mark, looks to be the one, sizing is about right
To me the best match looks like Diphucrania stellata http://bie.ala.org.au/species/urn:lsid:b...
You have another Diphrucania sp. in your stream, as I remember. Please, compare with that one. I am on my iPhone, so no links available...
Stunning little beetle ,nice find and shot.It looks like --Diphucrania albosparsa or a close relative.
Wow Gorgeous!
