Posted - 17/10/2014 : 05:01:07 I found this robber fly with prey and upon closer inspection, i realized it's a Cerambycid. Glenea sp.? Selangor, Malaysia.

The robber fly was about 15mm and the beetle 3 to 4mm. Here's a 100% crop showing the beetle up close.

Can anyone confirm the ID of the Cerambycid? Thanks. |
