Oedionychus crux-nigra
"Swiss Flag" Flea beetle Oedionychus crux-nigra or Oedionychus cruxnigra. If Switzerland had a national tropical bug... this would have to be it!
Thanks Bayucca! I'm really grateful for your passion to help everyone here at PN.
Chrysomelidae, Galerucinae, Alticini, looks almost identical to Asphaera nobilitata, but note the missing 4 white bar which is needed to complete the Swiss flag.

So it must be the other one:
Oedionychus crux-nigra or Oedionychus cruxnigra.
I am not sure how safe is this ID, I will as an expert for confirmation...
