Flat-faced Longhorn Beetle | Aceh Insect

in photography •  7 years ago 

Yesterday I again found a long-horned insect was straddling a green branch. He is a Flat-Faced Longhorn Beetle (Acanthoderes quadrigibba), the brown color between the green leaves makes him very easy to find.

He has a long antenna even longer than his body. The antenna grows between its eyes, making it look like a horn.
When I took pictures she was not moving, it makes me think, is he sleeping? But, his eyes were not closed, and it made me think again, how did he close his eyes while sleeping while he did not have the eye membrane?

After I finished taking some pictures, I tried to touch them to make sure, yups... it turns out he was sleeping. Feel there are disturbing his nap, he then moves away from me.

From some sources I read, this type is widely spread in Asia.
My own beetle is also hairy, it's just my lens is not able to capture more detail their feathers. :D

Aha. So they are the same. Now I know it right name. Flat faced :)

Nice one. Interesting body shape too. Most of the Longhorn beetles where I am have long narrow bodies. Terrific photos.

Maybe it's a different kind in the same family. Like the long horn on my previous post.

I like macro photo! :)

Me too, through macro photography I can know a lot about the small world.
