| Genus Adoretus | September 20 2026 | Central Aceh Regency,Aceh, Indonesia |
I managed to find a leaf beetle in front of my house. This particular beetle is light grayish-brown in color and has a somewhat elongated, convex body, with rough-textured wing covers. I managed to find this beetle at night, so I couldn't capture its beauty in much detail. It is quite difficult to find this beetle in the wild, and as a farmer, I can admit that myself.
Now I am no longer surprised or confused by the presence of this insect because during the rainy season, there are so many insects that enter my house or simply stop by the terrace. When this insect landed on the floor of my house, I immediately tried to approach it. Luckily, it did not fly away, so I was able to photograph it.
I myself don't know whether this insect is dangerous to humans or not, but this insect does not have large teeth or a stinging apparatus like a wasp, so it is most likely considered harmless.
Okay friends, now I will share some pictures of this insect here.

Excellent nighttime discovery of the Adoretus genus beetle, @maxmarvin! It is fascinating how the rainy season brings so many varied species to our home terraces
