[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Beetles in the family Chrysomelidae are commonly known as leaf beetles. This is a family of over 35,000 species in more than 2,500 genera, one of the largest and most commonly-encountered of all beetle families.
I found a dark blue Leaf Beetle, Chrysolina caerulans. It's about 12 mm long.

Hi Rimantas

This is a superb Macro! I really like the perspective of the beetle on the symetrical flower. Colors are great and BG is excellent and neutral.
