Hisserdude Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Here's what a "Princisia vanwaerebeki Tricolor" is supposed to look like: BTW, your "Princisia Tricolour" are our "Gromphadorhina grandidieri" I'm pretty sure, not sure which name is correct though, as Princisia is probably not a valid genus, yet wild G.grandidieri look a lot different than our captive stock...

Nicolas Rousseaux Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 The diference between the "black and white" and the "tricolor" form is mainly the color on the thorax: the vestigal wings are brown/red on tricolor, darker, on the black and white. The shape of the stripes are also a bit diferent... But there are still variations in each strain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Bug Lady Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 So, what does your average "Princisia" look like? I'm asking for a verbal description, not a picture as I won't be able to see the picture. I just got a pair and my family insists my male is brown. Could a "Princisia" appear brown?

Nicolas Rousseaux Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 normal Princisia appear black. The space between the segments might be lighter, but the general color is definitely black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
