Mystery Beetle - Leptinotarsa haldemani Baboquivari Mts, Pima County, Arizona, USA September 29, 2006 Size: ~7-9mm
Several of these (maybe 10) eating leaves of small Woolfberry (Lycium). I'm guessing a Chrysomelid, but could easily be something else. It would be good if someone who knows beetles filled in the blank I'm drawing. Will post another, probably different individual.
