Yes, and I think U.S. is one of the best country for wildlife documentation.

I think it's mainly US species on bugguide but maybe it will help to narrow down the species a bit!

How lovely!
There are many US species of tortoise beetle - here is a link to some them on bugguide (sadly no match to yours here though!) http://bugguide.net/index.php?q=search&a...
