rosalia batesi beetle琉璃星天牛ルリボシカミキリ

I caught a rosalia batesi beetle! That's easier to do than say!

The rosalia batesi beetle is a type of longhorn beetle, so named for the long antennae upon its head. But did you know that longhorn beetles often grow antennae longer than their very own bodies, wot wot? As if this weren’t odious enough, look closely and you will find these antennae…are covered in tufts of hair! Best not look closely, I say.
