It is always a treat to see one of these very cute little beetles (about 5-7 mm in size). They are sometimes given the name teddy bear beetle, as they look a bit like a teddy bear when viewed from above. I always check any Solanaceae plants for this species, as well as Physalis (which is where this one was). Earlier in the summer, I found a larva of this species, with its fecal shield in place.
