This reptile got out from behind the ceiling skirting board, flew to the light-to the chandelier, and then another one-fell on the sofa. bedbugs thought, but bedbugs don't fly...New neighbors moved in from above, maybe something got out of them??? shortly..are they afraid or not??? fight or run away? I'll note-it's December outside, it's cold, and these creatures are alive...brrrr...

This is Megabruchidius dorsalis, such an exotic seedling. What kind of region though? You didn't bring gledichia beans home?

...but bedbugs don't fly...

Yes...but not blood-sucking ones, but those who live on the street and do not reach the residents of houses and apartments.

Why is that? And a number of bloodsuckers fly, including those that "get residents of houses and apartments" wink.gif :

Hurray!!! we finally figured out our alien, or rather the aliens from the ceiling! If you are interested, I will tell you: in fact, these are really aliens, because they came with us in pods of a hefty acacia tree from the Sea of Azov. Beautiful, shiny pods lay on the wall, and we had no idea that there were already eggs or larvae inside, which grew up in the warmth, ate off the contents of the pod, gnawed holes in the leaves and crawled out. That's when we pop-pop them. In a word, this is a BEAN SEED-a pest of grain legumes. They feed on generative organs, pollen, petals, and flowers of various legumes. On beans, they appear at the beginning of bean formation, in the mass-at the beginning of bean maturation. Beetles lay their eggs on the leaves of beans, in wrinkles, cracks or pits gnawed by the female in the dorsal suture of the bean, much less often from its other sides.

I wrote you a couple of posts ago who it is. This is an exotic type of grain that has taken root in the south. Your "hefty acacia" is almost certainly a gledichia, on which this species develops.

Indeed, 5 days ago the "invader" was identified and accurately identified, but for some reason he ignored the correct definition, and only now, it turns out, he "calculated" it himself, and even then inaccurately. Of course, this is not the same seed that you gave a reference to (Acanthoscelides obtectus), but the one that Fornax13 - Megabruchidius dorsalis has long pointed out.

Fornax13, thanks for the hints. I'm sorry I didn't see them earlier , which is why I racked my brain.

And by the way, it was these beans that my child brought from the South. So your conclusion is just right!
