Aspidimorpha miliaris is a widespread Asian species of beetles belonging to the family Chrysomelidae. The genus name is frequently misspelled as "Aspidomorpha", due to an unjustified spelling change in 1848 http://www.ubio.org/NZ/detail.php?uid=18185&d=1.
This species reaches about in length. Larvae have a gregarious habit and feed on Ipomoea species, with potentially dangerous impact on crops.[1] Its back is yellowish brown with a scattering of black spots.[2] The number and pattern of spots varies greatly between individuals, with some beetles possessing almost no spots, while others have many.
Aspidimorpha miliaris occurs throughout SE Asia and India. This beetle group is oftentimes found synonymous with populations of Aspidimorpha Sanctaecrucis on I. carnea.[3]
