Breeding hints:
Eudicella trilineata interruptefasciata is like all other Eudicella species that I have kept a very easy to breed species. They make for a good entry into beetles breeding. Eggs are laid into a mix of rotten wood and leaves. Larvae normally do not show cannibalistic tendencies and pupate without problems in the feeding substrate. The size of the horn of male Eudicella shows the quality of the breeder. The better the maintenance and food, the bigger the horn.
