Calligrapha Leaf Beetle

Calligrapha barda

Description:

Leaf beetle of about 8mm body length. Metallic brown/bronze colouration with irregular white spots on elytra; legs a reddish brown. At first glance, I thought of Calligrapha, which are plentiful in the area, but it's something different.

Habitat:

Found in 'El Cimatario' national park, just outside of Querétaro. The area is semi-arid, with lots of acacia and cacti
