The six hundred most beautiful beetles in the world
This extraordinary book collects the pictures of and information about 600 beautiful beetles, arranged in four groups (Archostemata, Myxophaga, Adephaga, and Polyphaga). They come with a variety of shapes and spectacular colors. My favorites are the frog-legged leaf beetle (p. 575), the pilolabus viridans (p. 591), and the giraffe-necked weevil (p.593). The metallic-like surfaces of many of the beetles photographed in the book originates from microstructures that reflect light at certain angles rather than from pigments (hence the term structural colors). This book will encourage you to go out in the forest looking for beautiful beetles to photograph (you might want to learn something about close-up photography, in which case a nice book that I can recommend you is Close Up Photography in Nature by John and Barbara Gerlach).
