What is the name of your beetles page on facebook @bayucca ???

Sorry, should certainly be atromaculata not atropunctata. Silly iPhone ;-)

¡Con mucho gusto! If you write the scientific name this way, Stilodes is the genus name and Deuterocampa is the name of the subgenus. But they are just synonyms, not genus/subgenus. I think it only should be Deuterocampa atropunctata.

If you agree I will post it on one of my facebook beetle page to get a confirmation. And it is worth to be shown! OK?

Chrysomelidae, Chrysomelinae, Chrysomelini, Doryphorina (subtribu) and should be Deuterocampta atromaculata or Stilodes atromaculata as a synonym or older name.
