Surveys were carried out during March to July months of 2021 and 2022 to document the species diversity of Cetoniinae in selected locations of nine districts of Chhattisgarh viz., Raipur, Gariaband, Kabirdham, Balod, Rajnandgaon, Bastar, Surajpur, Surguja and Balrampur. The explorations yielded 29 specimens belonging to nine species of subfamily Cetoniinae. Nine species viz., Coenochilus brunneus, Gametis versicolor, Glycosia tricolor, Protaetia alboguttata, Protaetia fusca, Heterorrhina elegans, Protaetia species 1, Protaetia species 2 and Gametis species 1 were obtained from seven districts. The species diversity, distribution and dynamics across the districts are discussed.
