Forum Entomologi Italiani

questa è una delle 5 larve trovate sotto la corteccia di un vecchio albero (caduto) di ciliegio (Prunus avium), sulla parte che è stata su suolo.
dimensioni meno di 3 cm, è possibile sapere di più?

grazie,
cosmln

Ciao,

now back at home and trying to be at day with everything. In the time that I have been away these larva started to change and now I have 3 pupae and other two that are on the way to transform.
after I have studied more the subject now I'm 99% sure that this it is Cetonia aurata (Linnaeus, 1761), will change the subject and move the topic in right place and if will be the case for a wrong ID will see when beetle will come out .

some images (more here)... hope the colors are OK, still editing on TV screen
