User's notes

Even though this Castiarina sp. beetle looks greener to my eye than the bluer looking Castiarina sp, named flavopicta which was observed at higher altitude on Kunzea ericoides on the same day, I suspect rather than being C. oblita (which look browner and greener) in the labelled images I've seen, I have suggested this is C. flavopicta also.
