RE: DARK JEWEL IN MY HAND

coccinellidae, but the larger ones I have hardly seen during my research and that is worrying. Thank you for giving us a sample of the diversity of arthropods present in your country, greetings and success!Excellent photos my friend @borjan, in the world there is so much diversity of coleoptera that is simply amazing, in my city we see less and less, the ones I see more are those of the family

Thanks. The same here. I remember swarms of Stag beetles flying above my hometown at dusk from one patch of oak forest outside the town to another, some decades ago during the summer ... now the old oaks are mostly gone and the stag beetle is a rarity. Various coccinellidae and many Chrysomelidae are still OK and prosperous, finding their place in the gardens and small meadows ... but many species that need woods and more wild environments are getting very rare.
