Chrysanthia reitteri
two metalic green/brownish 1 cm beetles (escaravelho) - Chrysanthia sp. i think Chrysanthia reitteri. Currently mating. or is it Lobonyx aenus?
Flowers of Pedra Furada, Pêro Pinheiro. Rosa arvensis
i think Chrysanthia reitteriis, but could also be: Chrysanthia superba or Chrysanthia viridissima ? very much alike!
Madalena, I have been comparing Chrysanthia reitteri with Lobonyx aenus. Maybe Chrysanthia seems to have longer antennae apart from golden colour at the sides. But it is difficult, they look very much alike
