Species 22 - Lily Beetle

This is another alien species which is causing a lot of problems to garden plants. I found it on a lilly plant we have - a lily plant with lots of holes in it's leaves. This species could be confused with a close relative of Pyrochroa serraticornis, P. coccinea. However the Lily beetle is shorter and the abdomen is shorter in proportion to the overall length.
