The Rosemary beetle

in Fascinating Insects • 5 years ago

This beautiful and colourful beetle is known as Rosemary beetle (Chrysolina americana) !

This species stands out for its vibrant and metallic colors, dazzling those who have lucky enough to find it during spring in the blooming lavender, plant for which he has special taste...
