EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate beauty of a Four-spot carrion beetle (Xylodrepa quadripunctata) perched gracefully on a plant stem. Found in Poland, this European native belongs to the family Silphidae and is known for its feeding habits on decaying organic matter, particularly dead animals. The striking spotted pattern adorning its abdomen adds to the allure of this fascinating creature. Its detailed head and thorax showcase the remarkable complexity of its biology as an arthropod belonging to the order Coleoptera. This single shot provides a close-up view that allows us to appreciate every minute detail of this enchanting insect. In harmony with nature's botanical wonders, this photograph highlights not only the beauty of the carrion beetle but also its role within ecosystems.
