Please look at the barbels from the foothills of the Zap.The Caucasus Region of the Krasnodar Territory.
1 and 2 are probably the same species (Arhopalus rusticus ?), but different colors and sizes.
1. length-14 mm

2. length-19 mm

3. Ropalopus clavipes ?, but some small. length-9 mm

4. Agapanthia violacea ? length-15 mm

5. Agapanthia dahli ? length-14 mm

The first two beetles are Trichoferus campestris
Ropalopus, probably macropus. It is difficult to understand from the picture, look at the first segment of the antennae from above - in clavipes, the dotted line is large and sparse, the gaps are larger than dots, and the surface is smooth. Macropus has a dense dotted line.
Agapantis of a similar appearance from the North Caucasus are an obscure complex. This is often interpreted as A. lederi Gglb. ( = helianti Plavilshchikova) If the beetles are really from the same locale, then it's probably the same thing. I'm not ready to judge their differences with villosoviridescens.
And you can forget about dahli - half of the sawyere of the yellow - furred uniform is someone else's- glued from dahli, most likely, really.

Restoration of copies with other people's "spare parts" - evil.

I have repeatedly found such a "handsome man"in my bath. Then I washed it down the drain, but it probably got out again after a while. Black beetle, like without wings, with long whiskers, body length of about 3 cm. It doesn't look like a cockroach. When flushing into the drain, the hD pretended to be dead. The photo is blurry, but maybe someone will know? Who is this in general and what to do with it at the next meeting?)))

It also looks like a cockroach, because that's what it is. Cockroaches are not just one species - the Prussian, he is also "red", there are also black ones.
And what to do next time-depends on your personal attitude to insects and cockroaches in particular-sneaker there or "in the drain" does not matter
