Renowned for its metallic, iridescent colouration, this beetle can display vibrant green, gold, and sometimes even pink or purple hues, depending on the light angle. The elytra (wing covers) often have a glossy, mirror-like sheen that makes the beetle stand out in its natural habitat.\nChrysina victorinus is primarily found in Central America, including countries like Mexico, Guatemala, and Honduras, where it inhabits cloud forests and tropical environments at higher elevations.\nThe genus name \"Chrysina\" is derived from the Greek word \"chrysos,\" meaning \"gold,\" referring to the beetles' metallic appearance. \"Victorinus\" likely honours a person, possibly a collector or scientist involved in its discovery.\nThese beetles are sought after by collectors due to their extraordinary appearance, and their reflective surface may serve as camouflage in their dappled forest habitat.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWe firmly support sustainable tropical butterfly collections as long as they protect the rainforest where they fly and develop responsible, conscious trading.\nThis allows us to support local ranching farms with ethically sourced material and help at the same time collectors and enthusiasts to contribute to understanding and treasuring those species.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePlease take into consideration that the specimen that you will receive may slightly differ in size, shape or colour from the picture shown as you are purchasing a natural product.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePlease note: In our selection of white frames, the inner box frame—the part that creates the depth of the shadow box—is currently only available in black, as white versions are not available at this time.
