if you live in range of Hispa atra you too can have a tiny goth on your pinky (ironically, easily the least goth of all fingers)

A lovely Disonycha caroliniana that I met today. I love their stripes!

They look like hand-painted art.

I can’t believe I actually spotted this delightful little freak. He could have just been a lil bit of something stuck to the leaf but I stared at him for juuust long enough that I could make out the antennae and legs. Very good disguise if I wasn’t actively inspecting every vaguely insect-shaped object on this plant.
