Hi Barbara. Another cutie. With these little beetles it is often helpful for an ID to note the plant species it is with. [while I think of it the 'habitat' section above is meant to be for the immediate situation of this specimen t rather than general species habitat. eg. 'On long-leafed acacia shrub near open scrubby salt flats']
