The living beetles in the pictures were photographed in locality near Třeboň (South Bohemia, Czech Republic) on bark of a living solitary pine tree (Pinus sylvestris). Excuse us please for low quality of live beetle pictures, but Nothorhina muricata is very fragile, shy and extremely fast running beetle, hidden under bark scales most of the day-time.
