Sorry, no Lemming for scale (Wikipedia tells me a Lemming is ‘13–18 cm (5–7 in)’. So about the same size. I would imagine there are many about, but I only notice them when they are on doorframes or something....
A very interesting bug. Aside from the colouration it has fuzz on part of its antennae, and horns/ spikes on its back. Another photo from the side in comments.
I have no idea, would love to know though. Lived here for years and this is the only one I have seen. Southwest Cambodia, near Sihanoukville. Sorry, should have added that before.
These are quite odd in the world of Bees. They forage diurnally and nocturnally, and they migrate by season. The distance is usually only a few hundred metres....
They move closer to their food sources which vary between wet and dry season. I have no idea why they do not increase their forage area instead. It seems a strange adaptation, I guess building a new hive has lower energy requirements.
Since they are found in the same places as Scorpions, these always creep me out. Once I see what it is, I shoo it elsewhere. As long as they are handled gently they don’t release that defensive stink. Scorpions here readily act defensive, these are much more relaxed. Their colouration is quite interesting.
This may be linked to the recent update since I posted something two days ago without problem, and I saw to other users commenting about the same problem on the upgrade post. It is not an app specific problem: Eternity just says “Error: 400” when trying to post something with an image, but if I use a browser (tried with both...
I think that is what it is. Extraordinary climbers. I find them on the second floor of the house every few months. I see them outside a few times a week. Colouration is highly variable locally. Here they are green and black....
I would have to agree. I have seen one glide only once. The ones I saw in southern Thailand were yellow and black. My personal theory is that some herpetologist named these when opium was legal and readily available.
Solitary Bees and Predatory Wasps frequent these. I have never seen them interact though. Possibly they are not interested, or active at different times....

Trigona (I think) (sh.itjust.works)
Near Sihanoukville Cambodia. There were many on these fallen tree flowers after a rain....

Tetragona? Trigona? (sh.itjust.works)
Sorry for the photo, these girls are tiny, and my phone does not really do that....

Lovely things, quite relaxed as babies. This one was rescued from a palm tree after a storm. Another photo in body.
