Hábitat: Forests
The Liotrichus umbripennis is a small, oval-shaped beetle with a striking iridescent exoskeleton that shimmers coppery-green, shifting to deep violet under different light. Its elytra (wing cases) are noticeably broader and more rounded than many similar forest beetles, often speckled with tiny, darker dots. This vibrant coloration helps it stand out from its duller counterparts.
