Dear colleagues,

Could you help me with these specimen.

I think it could be P. cuprea cuprina. What is your opinion?

Hello Stéphane, last year I collected a single specimen not far from the site where this specimen comes from (a female who allowed me to start a breeding :ok:).
I have identified it as P. cuprina but I do not know the characters to distinguish ssp. cuprina from ssp. transfuga. Any idea?

(Coleoptera, Scarabaeoidea, Cetoniinae, Cetoniini) said:

P. cuprina transfuga = P. cuprina

Stéphane

Thanks Stéphane. I miss the paper you mention, as many of the papers published on Cetoniimania.
