The Black and Red Sumac Leaf Beetle

''Cryptocephalus quadruplex'' is a species of case-bearing leaf beetle in the family Chrysomelidae. It is found in North America.

Case-bearing leaf beetles are named so because the larvae construct protective cases from their fecal matter and sometimes plant debris.
