This was a little visitor in Monteverde, Costa Rica.
Woa. I have seen pictures of these before, but would love to encounter one. Clearly a Scarabeid, and I am thinking genus
Chrysina. Maybe C. woodii, but am not sure. See
https://bugguide.net/node/view/6604/bgimage for this lovely genus of beauties.
Yes, that is a pretty one. I hear that Costa Rica is full of interesting and beautiful critters.
Chrysina resplendens, (a.k.a. Plusiotis resplendens). Silly me, I did not see the Costa Rica reference.
