Ecology

They inhabit a wide range of forests and emerge in the summer. Although they have a cute appearance, they are treated as agricultural pests because they land on citrus fruits.

Habitat

Arasaki Beach

After coming out of the sea at Arasaki on the Miura Peninsula and taking a break, a Aobahagoromo landed on the beach.

It didn't move, so I was able to take pictures from all angles.
