Hello to everyone :ok:

Short introduction about me:
I am a German biology-student working with scarabs.
I found this forums last year, and I thought it´s a good time now, to show something of my work.
Unfortunately I am not able to understand Italian, but English should be understandable.


In my freetime I developed a method to prepare scarab-larvae. Until now I was able to get good results with Cetoniidae, Dynastidae, Lucanidae and Euchiridae.
The larvae are prepared at home in my kitchen. I did not used any freeze-drying methods. The real method will be published during this year.

Here are some pictures of my work:

The work on pupae ist not so easy. You always have some different color-dots on them. I have to improve their preparation. Here you can see a Xylotrupes florensis pupae:

Please let me know your opinion.

Best regards,
Matthias

Hello,

thank you for your positive feedback.
I started now working with Apidae and Lepidoptera larvae.
But there are a lot of problems and many disformed and decolorized insects.
But I am very sure to find a solution :)
I will inform you later about my newest results!
