Lamprima aurata
For the first time I've found a Lucanidae Lamprima aurata female at my apartment court yard without driving anywhere or spend money on petrol.

Re: Lamprima aurata
Nice capture. As far as I know aurata and latreillii are now the same species and the new name is Lamprima aurata latreillii.
In Queensland, the females are in different shades of blue, green and red

Re: Lamprima aurata
The males in Queensland are shiny golden green with red and organ sheen.
Re: Lamprima aurata
These are one of the best bred by me a few years ago.
Re: Lamprima aurata
The Lamprima from Victoria and Tasmania have purple and red forms but not as shiny as the Queensland ones.

That is an amazing species Kan !
Your photography is equally amazing with so much definition and clarity.
The depth of the blue and red colorations along with the variable golden green / orange sheen (color) range puts this species right up there with the Chrysina in brilliance.
Many thanks for the excellent photos and for any others you may be able to grace us with sometime.
