Julodis euphratica also known as the Sulphrous jewel beetle or Euphratic jewel beetle, an insect from the order of beetles and a family of whippings. It measures from 29 to 31 mm. Her shiny green dress is embellished with bright yellow spots. Its power is nectar from wild flowers.[1][2] The larvae of these beetles live in acacia trees, where they spend the year before pupating and emerging in the early spring to mate. The larval stage lasts about 9 months and the adults live for 3 months. The total lifespan of the beetle from egg to adult and death is approximately a year in length.
