Hi folks,

I've had a number of questions recently related to beetles of the  
genus Calligrapha, large showy leaf-beetles found on a variety of  
tress, shrubs, and others host plants. Thirteen species have been  
recorded in the Maritimes and recognizing them can sometimes be  
rather problematic. I've added a web page to the Atlantic Canada  
Coleoptera website:

http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/Environment/NHR/atlantic_coleoptera.html

Which has a modified key to the species in our region as well as  
links to photographs of most of the species which are found here:

http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/Environment/NHR/Calligrapha.html

I will add a photograph of Calligrapha confluens Schaeffer in the  
near future.

All the best!

Chris
