Deloyala guttata
Very small and brilliant Tortoise beetle. About 5 mm diameter. They are so small you can miss them easily and when they see you they hide in the underside of the leaf.
Semitropical Pacific coast

Wow! What a great pic! I just love seeing the great variety of creatures from all over the world!
I have a similar looking Tortoise beetle from India, but with slightly different markings. Take a look- http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/116...
