Wow thanks antonio! sure I will add it. Cheers.
Thanks james. It is one of my favorites. :)
Thanks for the ID Deepti!
Sure it is a beautifull bug thanks for the comment Paul. ;)
Unfortunately I don't have one from the underside.
For curiosity, what characteristics I must see at underside of the individual to identity one species from the other?
Está rudo poder identificar a nivel de género a estebichillo. Podría ser Ceresa sp, Vestistilus sp, o Stictolobus sp. Definitivamente pertenece a la tribu Ceresini.
Si, era verdaderamente pequeño de hecho al principio lo confundí con una basurilla. Sin embargo la foto si permite identificar hasta genero debido al pronoto elevado, aplanado, con surcos marcados, una muesca profunda y ancha en el centro que resulta en dos lóbulos elevados. Característicos del genero Entylia.
Hasta ahora cambio el ID jaja. :)
