The Museum
The Jewel Beetle can be donated to the museum. Upon doing so, the following text is given by Blathers:
"Jewel beetles are very pretty insects that show a red line on their green bodies when refracting light. They're so pretty that it's believed people used them for craftwork a long time ago. Their shiny wings are easy to notice, but birds have a hard time targeting them. This is because birds aren't very good at seeing things that change color in different lights."
Quote
Upon catching the insect, the player will say the following:
"I caught a jewel beetle! A real diamond in the rough!"
