Flea Beetle - Altica

Flea Beetle - Altica
Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, USA
November 17, 2004
This could be Altica chalybea, the Grape Flea Beetle. Florida records list it in most counties throughout the state, and it does look like this photo from Virginia Tech's Entomology dept.

These were very abundant on many of the natural areas I visited. This photo was taken at the Frenchman's Forest Natural Area.
