Sure Martin, no problem. This is my only green spotting. And from what I can see all the leaf beetles are vary variable. http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/734...

Thanks Lori. It is recorded by Tony in Tasmania, so now you have to ID it for me :)
Thanks stephanielrickman. But it has taken me way to long to figure out how to use the camera...
