Cool shoot, Sylwek. If I'm not completely mistaken, that is a Shield Bug (Pentatomidae), called Graphosoma italicum. The shield bugs have a chemical defence that they spray onto attackers. Even birds will think twice after a taste of that stuff. That's how they get away with such radiant colours. Here's a link I found googling the latin name: http://www.geocities.com/pelionature/Graphosoma_italicum.htm Cheers, Jostein ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sylwester Pietrzyk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, August 02, 2004 5:05 PM Subject: [PAW] yet another roballo :-) > http://www.plfoto.com/zdjecie.php?picture=368662 > Little, nice, colorful beetle living on "pasternak" vegetable in my garden > :-) Made with *istD, FA 100/2.8 macro and AF360FGZ wireless from side.
