So much smaller than I expected - I never realize sizes. I can't wait to pose this beetle
A bit pricey, but well worth it! Fast shipping! Thanks!
EXACTLY as pictured! Absolutely stunning beetle. I bought this specimen after another beetle didn't quite look like it's pictures under normal light, it was supposed to be brightly colored similar to this one. It's safe to say I was hesitant to purchase such an expensive bug (considering other prices are around $5-$10). Let me say it is WORTH IT. There is no words to describe the iridescence, and the white in the middle of the wing didn't bother me as much as I thought it would! Beetle was packaged well and nothing arrived broken. I had to give this away to a customer but it's safe to say I'll be back for one for myself!!
The colors on this specimen are unreal. A bit harder to pin than most beetles I've worked with (legs were wrapped tightly under the body), and pricey, but in my opinion worth it!
