Moved from Trichodes.

Wow.
I see at least two Hymenopterans I didn't notice when I was collecting: the central red and black wasp appears to be an Astata or Dryudella; The bee in the bottom right is a resin be, maybe Anthidiellum. We must go back:-)

 
Too good to crop
Yeah, this was about the beetle, but I thought the wasps and the flying bee were too nice to elimit.
