a small cylindrical orange beetle on a white sheet with a pseudo scorpion grasping it's leg
it is SO cool and weird seeing them on the same insects they've been found on in amber. i see them riding in on ambrosia beetles at light traps occasionally, especially on platypodines.

Small black beetle with pointy cuticular growth on one lateral side of it's thorax. Photographed on a petri dish using a microscope.
Any guesses how this growth/tumor formed? A fun Caplothorax lugubris sap beetle specimen.
