Monomad - Flower Beetles & Caterpillars

This is my entry for the daily #monomad challenge

On today's post, I want to share some interesting macro photos that I found some time ago. There are two interesting insect objects that I have prepared, the first is a beetle that is still in the genus Glycyphana, namely a beetle in the Scarabaeidae family.

Judging from its physical characteristics, this beetle has a dominant dark brown color with a slight mixture of yellow, and from the results of my search, this beetle is a type of flower beetle, so it is natural that when I found this beetle it was indeed on a wild flowering plant.

Besides the beetle above, I also found a caterpillar in the same location & the caterpillar was detected as the larva of the Olene mendosa moth. Even though the caterpillars are a bit ticklish, I'm still interested in taking photos of them, and of course very carefully so they don't climb onto my hands :)
