A pair of Lilioceris leaf beetle, mating while hanging under a tendril. The male is the one on the back (right), the female is the larger one on the left. If you look closely, the male seems to be enjoying himself with his hands raised up. The female is quitely eating on the young tendril. Possibly a Lilioceris subcostata
Bushes in Uncle Tan Bed&Breakfast, Sepilok road, Sandakan, Sabah.
>>>Map accuracy : 50m diameter. Another age-restricted spotting. In beetle porn, females give males a ride.
