seen near Forster.
Hi there,
We’re overseas people from The Netherlands. We took a photo from a beetle on the seeds of trees close near the water in Forster, NSW. There were hundreds of them. Can you tell me the name of this beetle. Thanks,
regards,
Kees Rullens

Hi Kees,
This is not a beetle, but a True Bug. It is a Cotton Harlequin BugTectocoris diophthalmus, also called the Hibiscus Harlequin Bug.
