I was on holiday in Genting Highlands recently and found some beetles. Comparing the number of beetles encountered during my previous trip to Genting Highlands, it was a great disappointment as I only encountered a handful of beetles during this trip. Nevertheless, here are some of the beetles encountered there.
For this week night macro session, HW wanted to explore the remaining part of the Ang Mo Kio Garden Park West which we didn't get to do during our last trip there. The first critter that we encountered was this interesting looking Praying Mantis that looks like a stick.
The first beetle for the trip was a commonly encountered Chafer Beetle (Adoretus compressus).
A short walk from the Adoretus compressus Chafer Beetle was another brownish-black Chafer Beetle.
After a while of walking without finding any beetles, this commonly encountered Chafer Beetle (Apogonia expeditionis) was a welcomed sight.
A stone's throw from the Apogonia expeditionis Chafer Beetle was another Chafer Beetle.
The last beetle encountered was a small group of Water Beetle (Donacia javana) usually found on water lilies or lotus leaves in a pond.
The number of beetles encountered on this trip was rather disappointing, but not unexpected given the current hot and dry weather in Singapore.
