Hello guys!
Shoots were taken 10th of November. Sorry for bad general photo.
This is for sure Scarabaeidae. On the Polish forum there's a topic about Cetonia vs. Protaetia. Author of this topic said there that Protaetia cuprea metallica are often close to anthill of Formica rufa. I digged this larvae close to yellow ants (sorry, I'm not a specialist, I don't know what species). Also he said that Cetonia have a white spot on the head (photo below). I haven't noticed this on my larvae.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
