Chlorida festiva is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Carl Linnaeus in his landmark 1758 10th edition of Systema Naturae.[1][2] It is known from southeastern United States, Central America, South America, and the West Indies. Adult males produce (6E,8Z)-6,8-pentadecadienal, an attractant pheromone.[3] In Puerto Rico the larvae are known to be leaf mining pests of mango crops.[4]
