Chrysomela vigintipunctata, or the spotted willow leaf beetle, is a species of broad-shouldered leaf beetle belonging to the family Chrysomelidae, subfamily Chrysomelinae.

These minute insects, colloquially known as hoppers, are plant feeders that suck plant sap from grass, shrubs, or trees. Their hind legs are modified for jumping, and are covered with hairs that facilitate the spreading of a secretion over their bodies that acts as a water repellent and carrier of pheromones . [ 1 ]
Cassidinae larvae may be leaf miners (many of the former Hispinae), stem borers (e.g. Estigmena) and external leaf feeders (e.g. Leptispa, Oediopalpa). [9] Chrysomelinae generally feed on leaves as adults and larvae, though some species feed on flowers instead. [10] Criocerinae larvae are usually leaf miners or feed externally on leaves. [9]
Orange or yellow paints are used for harvest boundaries, and trees within those areas have blue, orange, green, or yellow paint, depending on whether they are to be taken or spared.
When feeding, C. auratus beetles feed on the margins of A. cannabinum and A. androsaemifolium leaves. The beetle will chew a five-to-seven-millimeter channel that sits diagonal from the leaf margin and points in the direction of the leaf's apex. Because this channel transects the major veins of the leaf, these initial cuts will exude a large ...
