  1. I don't think "Aulacophora indica" is correct, Sugian. It looks much different: smaller, smooth, different antennae. Posted 4 years ago
    1. I think it looks a lot like Lilioceris sp. So, perhaps it's a species in the Subfamily Criocerinae? Posted 4 years ago
      1. Excellent genus suggestion, looks solid! Thanks. Posted 4 years ago
        1. No problem :) Posted 4 years ago
      2. Thanks Christine. You are free to change the above title/ID. Posted 4 years ago
        1. You're welcome! Sorry that I can't figure out the species. There are so many similar ones. Posted 4 years ago
          1. Someone in one of Groups has given me correction as Lilioceris lili https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liljebille Posted 4 years ago
            1. Interesting. I had discounted that species because the individual in your photo doesn't have a black head, but perhaps there is individual variation. But, also -- your beetle's thorax doesn't have the 2 grooves that Lilioceris lilii has...or, perhaps I can't see them (I think they are on the sides of the thorax in Lilioceris lilii, which give the thorax an hourglass shape)? Lastly, iNat doesn't have Lilioceris lilii recorded in Indonesia. Posted 4 years ago
    2. Yes Ferdy, I'm not a scientist. I got the ID from googling, I'm not sure either if it's correct. So I use to wait for someone more experts to correct it. Thanks Posted 4 years ago
