Acromis Tortoise Beetle

Acromis sparsa

Description:

Acromis sparsa showing parental care with it's eggs. It is interesting that there is not much this beetle can do to defends it's eggs from bigger species besides standing there and die with them. It's really a really interesting and beautiful behaviour
