Found this bronze ground beetle (carabus nemoralis) meandering around my driveway so I decided to take some quick pics and a video to show off it’s colorful thorax! Colors may range from purple, blue, magenta, green, or a mix. Was released shortly after :)

I love you morally ambiguous trickster characters I love you characters with a sardonic sense of humour hiding their heart of gold I like you hedonistic assholes who know they are better than everyone I love you snarky bastard characters.

Carabus nemoralis

Stasera, durante una passeggiata, ho incrociato questo scarabeo stilosissimo con questa righina iridescende sul bordo, probabilmente un adattamento per essere evoluzionisticamente figo.

Non ho trovato con certezza il nome comune, che forse è scarabeo dei boschi, ma non sono sicuro.

Da sottolineare come questi colori brillanti non siano dovuti ad un pigmento ma a delle strutture microscopiche (dell'ordine dei nanometri) che catturano alcune lunghezze d'onda della luce e ne riflettono altre, a seconda dell'angolo con cui incide la luce.

Sulle elitre di questi carabidi, quindi, ci sono minuscole gabbiette che imprigionano alcuni colori e ne lasciano sfuggire altri, mentre di per sé le elitre sono nere.

È lo stesso principio con cui appaiono iridescenti anche le brunastre penne del pavone, giusto per fare un esempio.
