Re: 2 beetles, caterpillar and something else for ID

Hi All,

Nr.1 looks like some flea beetle, maybe a Longitarsus sp.? (Reminds me somewhat of Longitarsus jacobaeae anyway)


Nr.2 should be some "hopper".

For both Nr1 and Nr2 you'll probably need to come up with a name for the host plant if you want to stick a name on them - but I'm no expert in either group.

Hi Oxycera - that's cool - how do you tell these apart from Lagria atripes? The beetle people on a dutch forum seem to be reluctant to do that (they specialize in other groups though)... would be neat to know

Cheers, Arp

P.S. For Oxycera: Can you this one too?
