Claim: The jade-headed buffalo beetle (or Eudicella smithii) which is easily confused with E. euthalia, has a reddish, green or blue pronotum, and ocher to yellowish elytra with a black spot on the shoulders and the rear exterior angles.
Evidence: Eudicella smithii, the jade headed buffalo beetle, is an insect of the scarab beetle family, in the subfamily known as flower beetles. Due to similarities between E. smithii and E. euthalia, the two are easily confused. The color of the pronotum can be reddish, green or blue. The elytra vary from ocher to yellowish and show a black spot on the shoulders and on the rear exterior angles.
