Tortoise Beetle
The Cassidinae (tortoise and leaf-mining beetles) are a subfamily of the leaf beetles, or Chrysomelidae. The antennae arise close to each other and some members have the pronotal and Elytron, elytral edges extended to the side and covering the legs so as to give them the common name of tortoise beetles. Some members, such as in the tribe (biology), tribe Hispini, are notable for the spiny outgrowths to the pronotum and Elytron, elytra. Description The "cassidoids" have a rounded outline with the edges of the pronotum and elytra expanded, spreading out to cover the legs and head. They are often colourful and metallic, with ornate sculpturing; a few species have the ability to change colour due to water movements within the translucent Arthropod cuticle, cuticle. All members of the subfamily have the mouthparts reduced into a cavity in the head capsule, the legs have four segmented Arthropod leg#Tarsus, tarsi. The hispoids have Larva, larvae that are ecological diverse as Leaf miner ...

Chrysomelidae
The beetle family Chrysomelidae, commonly known as leaf beetles, includes over 37,000 (and probably at least 50,000) species in more than 2,500 genera, making it one of the largest and most commonly encountered of all beetle families. Numerous subfamilies are recognized, but the precise taxonomy and systematics are likely to change with ongoing research. Leaf beetles are partially recognizable by their tarsal formula, which appears to be 4-4-4, but is actually 5-5-5 as the fourth tarsal segment is very small and hidden by the third. As with many taxa, no single character defines Chrysomelidae; instead, the family is delineated by a set of characters. Some lineages are only distinguished with difficulty from longhorn beetles (family Cerambycidae), namely by the antennae not arising from frontal tubercles. Members of former chrysomelid subfamilies ( Orsodacnidae and Megalopodidae) are also difficult to differentiate from true chrysomelids. Adult and larval leaf beetles feed o ...

Thlaspida Biramosa
''Thlaspida biramosa'' is a species of beetle of the Chrysomelidae family. This species is found in China (Anhui, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Guizhou, Hainan, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangsu, Jiangxi, Sichuan, Yunnan, Zhejiang), Taiwan, India, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, North Korea, Thailand and Vietnam. Adults have an elliptical body. The pronotum is chestnut brown and the elytra An elytron (; ; : elytra, ) is a modified, hardened forewing of beetles (Coleoptera), though a few of the true bugs (Hemiptera) such as the family Schizopteridae are extremely similar; in true bugs, the forewings are called hemelytra (sometime ...l disc is strongly tumid, with coarse punctures, arranged in regular longitudinal rows.
