This little insect has such a very intricate appearance. It is extremely small, even looking almost like an ant. What makes me so interested in this insect is its beautiful coloring. Its head and thorax are bright orange, while its wing covers are glossy black. However, in order to see the beauty of this insect, we have to look at it from a fairly close distance.
As its name suggests, this is a leaf beetle, and this insect is a pest of plants, so its presence needs to be watched out for. If we have ever seen leaves with holes in them, perhaps this little insect is responsible for them.When I found this insect, I immediately tried to photograph it using a macro lens, and the results I got were also very satisfying.
Finding this particular insect may not be too difficult, but we will have a hard time when we want to photograph it.
Alright everyone, now I will share some pictures of this insect here.
