 After a few pictures to identify, now, courtesy of Francisco Rodriguez, I upload some pictures of Ptiloedaspis tavaresiana. The photos were taken in Almeria, Spain, between March and May, 2010 and 2011. There are more images in Biodiversidad Virtual:

 going to seek out some Artemisia galls in sand dunes and rearing it, can give this as result. Smile Almería is a very good place for insects, in general.
