I have another of these which is much lighter (more gold, less black) on this site also: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/156...

Many thanks. If anyone out there knows the secret to finding the elusive Golden Tortoise Beetle, I would love to hear it!
I'm also an angler: we fish for trout, Mahseer and some local fish, all fresh water!
Lovely image.
