Nice photo but I would have thought that it is a chafer - not a scarab.

Well it was identified for me as a scarab but you may have better information.

No you are right, it is a scarab. I photographed that once and I was told it was Platycoelia nigroesternalis. Not sure if that is correct because when I google that - the only photos I find are mine!!!

Saw those. Very nice and rather exclusive.
