Popilla Japonica

I learned that p. japonica can be distinguished from other green bodied copper wing metallic look-a-likes by having white tufts of hair along the abdomen and two on the backside. However, in browsing some of the IDs it looks like in some more tropical climates there are other beetles that might also have this.
