Beautiful Insect .. Dont exactly know the species ..

Approx 100 mm from tail (bottom) to extended fore-legs (top of picture). A truely amazing insect! (From the Chatham Islands).

This beetle was on fine granite. It was taken in February 2007 so it is one of my old ones. I am not sure if it was ever posted to Flickr because most of my photos from those days are not listed as Flickr ones. I need to check the SET on Flickr to be sure but I am running late. Gone for the day.

Please identify this insects

Found on my Bottle Brush plant.

Someone ID's these as Florida Predatory Stink Bug nymphs - Euthyrhynchus floridanus.

My first venture into macro photography during lockdown but insects are also entirely new to me so if you know what species it is then please let me know.

The live stick insects weren't behaving, so this was the only one I got a good shot of.

Very camera shy and may be it was the speedlight therefore I made only 5 shots. I like this one best from this series.
