The Leaf Beetle

 I assumed that the Leaf Beetle

Would be green
& in the shape of a leaf
Almost like stick insects...

Oh boy, was I wrong
Short legged
Antennas
Red
Apart of a family that consists of other strangely named beetles.

Cucumber, potato, tortoise
All feeding on crops & ornamental plants
But these beetles match their names, looking exactly like their labels.

But it's good to ignore the stereotypes
It's good to be different
And not follow the sheep.
