Welcome to BugsDirect Ltd. Leading Suppliers of Worldwide Entomology Specimens (Retail/Wholesale)
Chrysochroa limbata is among the most visually arresting members of the family Buprestidae — the jewel beetles — celebrated by collectors and naturalists alike for the extraordinary iridescent lustre of its elytra. Native to the forests of Southeast Asia, this species displays a vivid metallic sheen that shifts between deep greens, golds, and blues depending on the angle of light, a phenomenon produced not by pigment but by the microscopic structure of the cuticle itself.
Each specimen offered here has been professionally dry-preserved to A1 standard, retaining its full structural integrity, natural coloration, and scientific accuracy in an unmounted state ready for display, study, or use in creative work.
Specimen Details
Scientific Classification
Suitable for entomology collections, Buprestidae specialists, natural history displays, shadow box and framed insect art, resin and mixed media work, and educational use. Each specimen is ethically sourced and handled with expert care throughout preservation.
The photograph shows a representative example of the specimen you will receive. As natural objects, individual specimens will vary slightly in size, colour intensity, and form — this is characteristic of the species and does not affect quality grade.
