nice bug, well worth re-shooting
Moved from ID Request.

this kind of antennae and wing puctation rules out the beetle option

I have the specimen
I still have it. I can try again later when I have some time.

awesome, thanks
consider collecting voucher specimens -- see(1) for details; i guess, Tim Loh might handle this one... and be happy to have it, too.
i see P. annulicrus listed in BC(2) (not yet in the guide), but no idea which one[s] occur in your area

No luck
I am not having much luck getting a better picture. Either my equipment is not good enough or I am too shaky. I think it needs a better photographer
