Trichiini
The Trichiini are a tribe of the scarab beetle family (Scarabaeidae), though historically they were often classified as a subfamily, Trichiinae. The conspicuous bee beetles (''Trichius'') are probably the best-known genus in Europe. They vary in size from 6 to 65 mand can be distinguished from Cetoniini by having covered epimeres, and lateral edges of the elytra which are not trimmed. The adults feed on sugar-rich secretions of stems, leaves, fruits and flowers of different plants. Most larvae develop in rotten wood.

Bee Beetle
The bee beetles are scarab beetles of the subfamily Cetoniinae. They have hairy sides of the elytra like their relatives, and the upper sides of the elytra are usually yellow with prominent black blotches which form incomplete bands. This, and the fact that seen from the side they resemble a hairy plump bee, has given them their common name.
