ah, a man and his big, strong armoured wife :’]

trilobite beetles!! i’m fascinated by all of the Platerodrilus beetles but P.paradoxus takes the cake in terms of style. the females keep their larval form, and reach up to 80mm in size while the males are tiny, around 8mm. and i love them 😊

a digital artwork of two trilobite beetles, facing each other on a beige background with a dark red border. the left beetle is labelled male and is small, red and black with fluffy antenna. the right beetle is labelled female and is much larger, with armoured plates along its body, and is mostly black, with orange and red spikes, legs, and head. the two are surrounded by hand drawn stars, and two hearts above their heads. the scientific name, Platerodrilus paradoxus and the common name are also written.
