Beetlesbug
Hello
This pretty lady came in with some black locust firewood this past xmas. Seems to more or less be a ladybug dipped in gold. Thanks

Dear Elk Park,
This is a Golden Tortoise Beetle, Charidotella sexpunctata, sometimes called a Gold Bug. Larvae and adults eat the leaves of Morning Glories.
