Hi Alison
On these beetles the shape of the forward edge of the elytra is quite different to Ditropidus sp.
I don't think these are Ditropidus sp.

Hi Michael,

I think these are the same as previous sightings (Leaf beetle (Chrysomelidae) Ditropidus sp. (genus) (Leaf beetle) on 10 Feb 2019) which were identified as Ditropidus sp. However, I don't claim to be an expert. Perhaps the earlier identifications were incorrect.

Hi Alison
The 10 Feb sighting looks correct to me. It is different to this one as described above.
