RED SPECKLED JEWEL BEETLE - CHRYSOCHROA BUQUETI RUGICOLLIS

THE SCIENCE:

Chrysochroa buqueti is a species of beetle in the Buprestidae family found across much of Southeast Asia. Members of this species can reach a length of about 1.6-1.9 inches. Their glossy, metallic elytra are orange-yellow, with bluish-black markings. Their bodies’ metallic red and/or blue coloration is equally striking.

THE STORY:

This is perhaps our most striking species of jewel beetle; grab one before they’re all gone! Our all-natural, intact specimens (no fake parts here!) are all of first-rate quality, delicately prepared, mounted, and framed with double-glass glazing in our very own fabrication studio in Upstate New York. We model our frames from solid fine ashwood, and they’re available in both a matte-black, and a natural finish.

Our framed insects are made-to-order. Please allow up to two weeks for your order to be completed. If you need your order sooner than this, please contact us at 212-343-1114 x401 or fabrication@theevolutionstore.com and we will do our best to accommodate you!
