Yes I agree Claud, unfortunately I have had a few years and only just noticed this and I dont recall the suppliers name.

Waouh ! However, what should not be kept is the seller's address!

Sorry, I think the body belongs to Prosopocera argus (?) while the head (and the antenna) is from a Tersec

Yet, it is still a funny specimen to keep

It reminds me the story of Phanaeus costatus or Scarabaeus neptunus (see here page 26 ): which were in fact...chimeras

This is exactly how it arrived direct from Cameroon ??

Yeah! So big eyes !

Hahahaha, at first I thought it was a very strange Prosopocera... but after looking at it... your Prosopocera has a Tersec's head ... it fits well
