@tikitu A very beautiful #photograph of the beetle #Pygopleurus #vulpes (#Glaphyridae,#Scarabaeoidea), which is native to Greece and Eastern European regions, including Romania, Russia, and Ukraine.The long, contrasting #bodyhairs of the #males are striking, serving as a form of #mimicry to protect them from predators. They mimic the appearance of a defensive #bumblebee, with which birds,for example,have had negative experiences, but also improve pollination, a benefit especially for red plants.

Diesen #Engerling haben wir beim Ausheben des Teiches gefunden. Engerlinge (altdeutsch="kleiner Wurm") sind die Larven von #Käfern aus der Überfamilie #Scarabaeoidea 🪲, zu der auch Maikäfer, Junikäfer, Rosenkäfer, Nashornkäfer und viele andere gehören. Sie stehen als „besonders geschützte“ Art unter Naturschutz und wir haben ihm am Komposter ein neues Zuhause gegeben. #Naturgarten
