The beetle family Chrysomelidae, commonly known as leaf beetles, includes over 37,000 (and probably at least 50,000) species in more than 2,500 genera, making it one of the largest and most commonly encountered of all beetle families. Numerous subfamilies are recognized, but the specifics of leaf beetle taxonomy and systematics are likely to change with ongoing research. Adult and larval leaf beetles feed on a variety of plant tissue, with some being specialists of particular species or families of plant.
Johan Christian Fabricius, né le 7 janvier 1745 à Tønder (duché de Schleswig, dans le sud du Jutland) et mort le 3 mars 1808, est un entomologiste et économiste danois. Il a été un spécialiste des « Insecta », qui à cette époque comprenaient tous les arthropodes, les insectes, les arachnides et les crustacés et d'autres. Il a établi les fondements de la classification moderne des insectes.
