The image also features Ceroplesis capensis and Chromalizus afer, adding to the diversity of these fascinating insects.
Originally published in John O. Westwood's new edition of Dru Drury's "Illustrations of Exotic Entomology" in 1837, this print serves as a valuable historical record of these unique creatures. Each beetle is meticulously rendered with precision and care, highlighting their distinctive characteristics and patterns.
