Curiosity named the beetle.

On my last trip in Africa I found a glorious beetle - very gold and I was curious about it. I have finally managed to find out what it is - a tortoise beetle or Fool's gold beetle. Have a look at this if you are curious! A very kind man from the zoology Dept in Rhodes University identified it for me.
