Field Notes

Description:

This Paropsis is brown with creamy white spots adorning its elytra and pronotum. The arrangement of the dots are significant and this keys out as geographica and not marmorea as previously thought.

Habitat:

Always on red box eucalyptus in a nature reserve with reasonable original habitat.

Notes:

Fairly common at the moment in local habitat.
