Paropsis atomaria
I can see what you mean martin. I was thinking the lighting and angle might account for it.
P atomaria can lack the darker markings as yours does.
But this one looks kind of different.

More great close-ups of leaf beetles. I love the feet on these and you show them clearly. They are a bit like tiny camel feet.
