Buzzing with Pollen and Personality - Meet the Orange-eyed Longhorn!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by Alan Weaving, we are introduced to a fascinating creature that is as vibrant as its surroundings. The ASW-4434, also known as the Orange-eyed Longhorn, takes center stage on a bed of blooming flowers in South Africa's Namaqualand region. With its striking warning coloration and long antennae resembling majestic horns, this timber beetle stands out from the crowd. Its diurnal nature means it thrives during daylight hours when it can be spotted gracefully flitting from one Acacia species to another, indulging in pollen and nectar like a true connoisseur. But don't let its charming appearance fool you! The larvae of this cheeky critter have quite an appetite for wood. They burrow deep within trees while munching away, making them both a marvel and potential menace for timber enthusiasts. Hailing from Grahamstown in the Eastern Cape, this African beauty showcases nature's incredible diversity. From above, we get an exclusive view of its intricate orange eyes that seem to sparkle with mischief. So next time you stumble upon an enchanting flower bed or explore South Africa's stunning coastline, keep your eyes peeled for our charismatic friend - the Orange-eyed Longhorn!
