Pachnoda sinuata flaviventris (Gory & Percheron, 1833) |
Pachnoda sinuata flaviventris, the garden fruit chafer, is a subspecies of beetle belonging to the family Scarabaeidae.
Pachnoda sinuata flaviventris can reach a length of about 20–25 millimetres (0.79–0.98 in). [1] [2] Elytra are usually yellow or red, with a complex black pattern of markings. This subspecies shows a great variability of habitus. It is very similar to Pachnoda trimaculata . It can be distinguished on the basis of the analysis of the reproductive system of the male. [3]
These beetles are diurnal. Adults feed on fruits, while larvae feed on humus and fruits. [1]
This subspecies can be found in Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uganda, Tanzania, Zambia, Ethiopia and South Africa. [1] [3] [4]

The red-winged starling is a bird of the starling family Sturnidae native to eastern Africa from Ethiopia to the Cape in South Africa.

The western bowerbird is a species of bird in the family Ptilonorhynchidae. The species is a common endemic of Australia. It has a disjunct distribution, occurring in Central Australia and the Pilbara region of Western Australia.
Pachnoda marginata is a beetle from the subfamily Cetoniinae with a large number of subspecies that lives in west and central Africa. They are sometimes used as food for terrarium animals. The adult beetles are 20–30 mm, the larvae are very small when they hatch, but can grow as long as 60 mm. It is commonly called the sun beetle.
Pachnoda sinuata, the garden fruit chafer or brown-and-yellow fruit chafer, is a species of beetle found in Namibia and South Africa.
The flame-throated bulbul is a member of the bulbul family of passerine birds and the state bird of Goa. It is found only in the forests of the Western Ghats in southern India. Formerly included as a subspecies of Pycnonotus flaviventris it has since been elevated to the status of a full species. They are olive backed with yellow undersides, a triangular orange-red throat and a white iris that stands out against the contrasting black head. They are usually seen foraging in groups in the forest canopy for berries and small insects. They have a call often with two or three tinkling notes that can sound similar to those produced by the red-whiskered bulbul. The species has been referred to by names in the past such as ruby-throated bulbul and black-headed bulbul, but these are ambiguous and could apply to other species such as Rubigula flaviventris and R. dispar.
