Could you please switch (reload) the images, so the dorsal comes first? It is important that a series starts with the angle that has most diagnostic value, and with beetles it’s the dorsal habitus. Orientating the specimen head up (facing 12 o'clock) also greatly facilitates comparison and saves a lot of time.
