[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Trichodes is a species of checkered beetles belonging to the family Cleridae. These beetles are found in most of Europe, in East Palearctic ecozone and in North Africa.One of the most common species among Trichodes genus is Trichodes apiarius. I'm in doubt if my photo belongs to T. apiarius , any exact determination will be appreciated.

hello Ehssani,
loved to see your this beautiful bug drenched in dewdrops/ raindrops and that on flower petals! wow, that's classic! you have taken it from a nice POV and the DoF is simply great.

PS: regarding identification.. it might be a Trichodes apiarius. Trichodes alvearius is also not impossible. can't see the patterns and head-structure very well. do you have a dorsal view?
