Keith Burton replied to Günter Klaus:

I'm glad you like this pair of beetles Güni..............and that you found them interesting. Thanks very much for your visit and lovely comments.

According to the Royal Entomological Society there are 300,000 to 400,000 species of beetle which have been identified (so far)! So me and you still have a lot to find :-)))

Enjoy your evening my friend....best wishes, Keith!

400.000 Käfer bestimmen und fotografieren, das wäre aber ein wenig mehr als eine Lebensaufgabe, Keith, besonders , wenn alle Fotos so gut werden sollen wie hier. Es wäre aber schon viel, wenn du jeden Monat einen neuen präsentieren könntest, das wären dann in 40 Jahren 480 Käfer-Arten (wenn unsere chemische Industrie so viele noch überleben lässt).
