Field Notes
Description:
Although these usually appear in plagues this was a solitary specimen. About 15mm long.
Habitat:
On a low shrub in a playground reserve.
Notes:
These brightly coloured beetles are apparently unappealing to birds. <br> Smaller than I remembered them - this was a male. <br> https://www.brisbaneinsects.com/brisbane_clickbeetles/TricolorSoldierBe…
