Coleothorpa dominicana (Fabricius, 1801) | |
Coleothorpa dominicana is a species of case-bearing leaf beetle in the family Chrysomelidae. [1] [2] [3] [4] It is found in North America. [1] [5] These case-bearing leaf beetles lay eggs and the female beetle constructs a funnel structure that helps protect the eggs. The larvae lasts for 5 to 8 months and it takes about one year to fully develop the beetles to adulthood.
