The insects of the beetle family Chrysomelidae are commonly known as leaf beetles, and include over 37,000 (and probably at least 50,000) [citation needed] species in more than 2,500 genera, making up one of the largest and most commonly encountered of all beetle families.
The wing cases of the lily leaf beetle are dimpled and are shinier and more rounded than those of the cardinal beetle, which are relatively dull, and narrower, flatter, and more elongated. The cardinal beetle also has comb-like antennae. [5] The lily leaf beetle is herbivorous, while the cardinal beetle preys on insects. [6]
Brontispa longissima (known as the coconut leaf beetle, the two-coloured coconut leaf beetle, or the coconut hispine beetle) is a leaf beetle that feeds on young leaves and damages seedlings and mature coconut palms.
Anomoea laticlavia (Persimmon beetle, Clay-colored leaf beetle) is a reddish-brown and black leaf beetle native to central and eastern North America. It feeds on the leaves of Fabaceae, persimmons, and other species in its adult phase.
Diamphidia nigroornata or Bushman arrow-poison beetle, is an African leaf beetle species in the genus Diamphidia. The larvae and pupae of Diamphidia produce a toxin used by San people as an arrow poison. [1] [2] The Finnish explorer Hendrik Jacob Wikar, who travelled in Southern Africa in 1773–1779, described the larvae as "poisonous worms".
Some other beetles, although not closely related, bear the name "weevil", such as the leaf beetle subfamily Bruchinae, known as "bean weevils", or the biscuit weevil (Stegobium paniceum), which belongs to the family Ptinidae. Many weevils are considered pests because of their ability to damage and kill crops.
