Chlorocala africana africana (Emerald Jewel Beetle)

The Emerald Jewel Beetle is one of the most visually striking invertebrates you can keep, known for its metallic green shimmer and active daytime behaviour. Native to parts of Africa, this species is popular with both beginners and experienced keepers due to its hardy nature and relatively simple care requirements.

We recommend a naturalistic enclosure that includes:

• Moist substrate suitable for larvae development (if breeding)
• Bark, wood, and climbing surfaces
• Fresh food sources placed regularly
• Good airflow to prevent excess humidity build up
