Taman Rimba Kiara is a little green gem located in a corner of the TTDI residential area. The above flowering tree, the firmiana malayana or mata lembu, flashes in testimony to man's care-less-ness - it's one of only two trees in the park that had flowered, since then the tree had been chopped down.

As I was waiting

 Enchanted!



A gorgeous iridescent dark emerald green Opulent Jewel Beetle (Cathoxantha opulenta) that bears whitish abdominal sternum and transverse bands compared to the one with the more common yellow sternum and transverse bands.  It is a wood-boring beetle.
