Now Lema have only one European species: Lema cyanella, and species
melanopus belong to genus
Oulema. But I don't know what Oulema is it -are very similar!

is from
Oulema genus.
you can check what here: http://culex.biol.uni.wroc.pl/cassidae/European%20Chrysomelidae/oulema.htm
you have to chose between
Oulema duftschmidi and
O.melanopus
i think is the best internet resource for european
Chrysomelidae
