About Leptinotarsa decemlineata

The Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata), also known as the Colorado beetle, the ten-striped spearman, the ten-lined potato beetle, or the potato bug, is a major pest of potato crops. It is about 10mm long, with a bright yellow/orange body and five bold brown stripes along the length of each of its elytra.
