Love how you can see the little dents so clearly. Great focus and lovely colour mix. The slightly glittering effect of the leaf is a nice detail too.

Fantastic shot... Looks like a chrysomelid... Calligraphy beetle? If so, it's considerably different from the ones we have...

...interesting. What plants do you find them teaming on?

Found them in the borders of native jungle, a place with a lot of species, I do not noticed the preference of them for a special one.
