Aspidomorpha sanctaecrucis
A small perfectly shaped circle. About as big as my thumbnail. 1x1cm? Metallic orange, yellow, green! Its "shell" was hard. When it decided to move, it moved quite quickly.
At the border of a jungle area, next to the road, Phuket Thailand.
I was walking up a hill when my eye fell on something shiny in the sun. I stopped because it looked extremely out of place. At first I thought somebody had lost a shiny button and nearly wanted to continue walking, when something in me told me to have a closer look. WAUW! I could not believe it was alive untill it started to move!!! What an amazing little bug! Anyone knows what this is PLEASE!
Great spotting!
