Bolbocerosoma confusum, one of the more pumpkin-y members of the earth-boring beetle family, is always a pleasure to stumble upon! They are impressively round and recognizable little beetles that we find in our prairie traps occasionally. Three of these bulbous beetles are up on my website now!
Banana for scale.
Now that's some sparkly shit.

@bare1ythere submitted: Do you know what kind of beetle this stunning little guy I saw in Kyoto is? I gasped out loud when I spotted it. Thanks!!
I do! One of the earth-boring scarab beetles in the genus Phelotrupes.
Scarab Beetle Thorectes intermedius
Found throughout the western Mediterranean basin: Algeria, Tunisia, France, Italy, Malta. While it eats a variety of material, during nesting it uses only vertebrate dung as food for the future larvae.
