- Wedge-shaped Beetle
 - ? sp., male, body length 15mm
 - On the top of the Rocks Circuit in Karawatha Forest, we found a
Wedge-shaped Beetle. It was a male with antennae flabellate. This is the first
time we found a beetle in the Rhipiphoridae family. The beetle was sitting on
the top of a small Acacia tree, with its antennae fingers fully opened, seems
waiting for something. We gauss it was waiting to receive the perfume signal
from a female.
