Acalypta parvula
is correct. The species A. barberi was synonymized to A. parvula. So the ID was correct from the beginning, just a matter of name changes. It has been suggested that the species was introduced into North America.

thanks again!
i think the problem with barberi involves homonymy, and this name is unavailable for this species but the senior homonym is still valid and used for a palaeotropical species
