I shot this interesting bug on my recent visit to Kerala.
I could not find any good information regarding this from google search. He could be a juvenile Rhino beetle but I could not find a similar looking picture to corroborate.
I was wondering if somebody could help me identify this.
that is beautiful....but it gives me the willies. ;)
