Lantern Bug (Pyrops spinolae)

Only on two ocassions have I bumped into Lantern Bugs, and both times I found it difficult to get decent shots. As I approached them, they simply move further around the tree, making photography difficult. Still, this one is not too bad and I believe that it is the Lantern Bug, Pyrops spinolae, though I could be wrong. I saw it back in 2010 in Chiang Mai. I also saw a different species in Khao Yai a year later.
