This koksi beetle has a body length of about 5 mm and a bright orange to orange-red with a black pattern on its back.
Some time ago I finally can see a pair of this koksi beetle is being married. This is my first experience to see for myself the wedding koko beetle. Interesting and funny to see how the female koksi beetle goes here with the male beetle on its back.
