Can you help me identify the following green beetle? It was dead when I found it but has a jousting horn in the front making me think it is related to rhino beetles. Eltharian 18 April 2006
I would look among the dung beetles. KimvdLinde 09:25, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
The rose chafer beetle (Cetonia aurata) or the Potosia cuprea are good possibilities. JoJan 17:35, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
It looks rather different from the specimen on the rose chafer article. It also looks very different from the specimens of Potosia cuprea here (not the first picture, but the two beneath). If you think it is a Cetonidae, maybe it is a Dicronorrhina. There is quite a nice gallery of Cetonidae beetles here (personally I think there is quite a likeness with Dicronorrhina hybrid). It would be helpful to know where it was found though. --IronChris | (talk) 18:36, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
