All longhorn beetles have prominent antennae, but Batus barbicornis has every reason to be proud—its antennae are exceptionally impressive!

And there's another reason this species stands out: it was first described (under the original name Cerambyx barbicornis) by none other than Carl Linnaeus himself—the father of modern taxonomy.

Now we wonder—do any of our subscribers have a reason to be proud of their own antennae? 😉
