The type species of the genus is Cetonia bifasciata Quoy & Gaimard, 1824. These cetoniids have the tip of the scutellum visible. The genus is spread throughout the whole Australian region.
The details of the paramers have been published in the volume 24 of The Beetles of the World, together with a general distribution map.
Flower chafers are a group of scarab beetles, comprising the subfamily Cetoniinae. Many species are diurnal and visit flowers for pollen and nectar, or to browse on the petals. Some species also feed on fruit. The group is also called fruit and flower chafers, flower beetles and flower scarabs. There are around 4,000 species, many of them still undescribed.
