Paropsisterna_sp15 This bright beetle was found on Mallee Gums in the Bid Desert, Western Victoria.  Leaf beetles can be monophagous and  live on only one species of plant.  The red head is an excellent match for the seed buds which have a red cap.      Australia,Big Desert,Coleoptera,Leaf beetle,Paropsisterna Click/tap to enlarge Promoted
