A dark beetle with long antennae on a light brown rock, with green leaves and red berries
Detailed Description
A dark-bodied insect, possibly a longhorn beetle, is positioned on a light brown, textured rock against a plain, light brown background. The insect, located in the upper right quadrant, has a dark, possibly black or very dark brown, body with lighter, irregular spots or markings, and two long, curved antennae extending forward. Its six legs grip the rock's surface. The rock is a light brown color with subtle variations in tone, suggesting depth and texture. To the left and below the rock, a vine-like plant with several green leaves and clusters of small, bright red, berry-like objects spreads across the lower half of the image. The red objects are depicted with numerous small dots, giving them a textured appearance. Tendrils of the plant curl upwards and to the left. Below the plants, a patch of faint green stippling suggests ground cover. In the upper right corner of the rock, two red characters, "温良", are visible.
