A <em>Neochlamisus</em> species in Montgomery Co., Maryland (7/29/2018). This and the following five photos represent the same individual. Steve Scholnick notes: This is one of the case-bearing chrysomelid beetles whose larva carry around a shelter made of their own feces. I found the larva on a <em>Rubus</em> leaf on 7/28 and fed it on those leaves for about a week. It appeared to feed only at night, but that may not represent its natural behavior. It then pupated until 8/19. (Photo ID: 131212 - Psn: 20)
