Ken Thongpila Kaloplocamus ramosus? Am I right Gary? Nelson Bay Australia.

Gary Cobb Ken this is Kaloplocamus acutus Baba, 1949

Ken Thongpila Cool, Thanks Gary Cobb.. New one for me :-)

Gary Cobb Nice work and this is another beautiful species!

Ken Thongpila Thanks Gary. I didn't pay attention at all as it was hiding and also I thought Kaloplocamus ramosus, saw before but 5 mins later it came out so I took few shots and checked out on my computer. It looked different! Very happy now :-)
