According to the label, all 6 copies are:
Protaetia ( Protaetia ) scepsia Dohrn, 1872
(Cetoniinae → Cetoniini → Cetoniina)
Is it really such a variable view?
I'll ask our specialists to join us. Actually interested in whether all belong to the same species? Unfortunately, there is no place to check for yourself. And the trouble with all this exoticism (((

In any case, the variability is in their blood. Maybe this is the distinguishing feature of the species? Even the left and right elytra are different.
Maybe so. To be honest, the last one confused me on the underside most of all ))

Sorry, I wanted to answer, but I clicked the wrong button and it worked, I edited it and forgot about curating it... I'm moving the response:

Representatives of the genus Torynorrhina (Arrow, 1907)

06.2006
[attachmentid()=254883]

In my opinion, there is a typical jamb observed when buying a traffic light

I'm afraid it's not the green form of flammea or Torynorrhina at all (it's not pubescent on top, is it?). Usually, this green animal turns out to be Rhomborhina mellyi.

I have about the same specimens in the D. dabryi series with poorly developed horns. A common occurrence for most horned plates. I think such males can be called "f. minor"
