I met these two cousins in the abandoned yard behind my parent's house, and I found them close to one another. At first, I though I was capturing two same species since they looked identical for a bit, until I go through the footage, and then I learned that they are very different actually.
So maybe they are not siblings, but most likely to be cousins or some sort because of their similar shape, although with different colors.
I have tried to find the name of this species online, but it gave me so many different species, but not quite like the one that I have in this post. So I am so sorry that I could not provide you with the names of these species.
the first beetle has the black and orange coloration. it underside was orange, but the wings are black. I could not get so many photos of this beetle at least with a better angle since it flew away when I tried to direct the branch it was restign on.
And then to my surprise I saw this beetle not far from the plant of the first beetle, and that is also the reason why I though that these two species are the same, in which in fact that they are different.
this one almost all of its body are orange except the legs, head and th antennae that has a blackish coloration.
