| This Jewel Beetle, with the scientific name Strigoptera bimaculata, is very similar in appearance to the 
						
Murayama Jewel Beetle, 
another metallic wood-borer beetle with the scientific name 
																						Chrysochroa maruyamai (fig.). The most noticeable difference is that the  
elytra of  Strigoptera bimaculata are grooved.
