  1. I wasn't that excited about this stock standard photo of a darkling beetle (Eleodes goryi), until I noticed the parasitic tachinid fly egg attached above the insect's midleg. This beetle is on borrowed time.

    Much warmer last night, with lots of really tiny #beetles in among the scarabs (still mostly Phyllotocus macleayi).

    The second frame includes a garden #katydid, Caedicia simplex, with more colourful legs than most. (#Tettigoniidae)

    Frames 3 and 4 both include a darkling #beetle of the genus Tanychilus (#Tenebrionidae, #Alleculinae)
