Foliage Infestation of Golden tortoise beetle, Aspidimorpha sanctaecrucis (Fabricius) was observed in the shisham plantation of Jharkhand and the present finding documents a new record of host plant (Dalbergia sissoo Roxb.) of this coleopteran beetle from Jharkhand, India. This leaf beetle exhibits almost rounded, humped body encircled by a faint light brown border and a golden reflection in the elytral disc and prothorax.
