Forum Entomologi Italiani

Dear Friends,

I invite you to visit web site of the project carried out by prof Lech Borowiec from Wroclaw University (Poland).

In Poland we have more than 6000 species of beetles and main aim of the project is show all of them on high quality pictures.

Now ca 5000 species have been published but web site is upgraded a few times in the year.

It is a gigantic work of one man. Create a single photograph is often several hours of work...

Enjoy
