Biology:Jolibrotica
From HandWiki
Jolibrotica is a genus of Asian leaf beetles in the subfamily Galerucinae and tribe Luperini (subtribe Luperina, section Phyllobroticites). The genus was erected by Chi-Feng Lee and Jan Bezděk in 2015, with species that were previously considered very similar to Phyllobrotica. They named Jolibrotica after the French entomologist Pierre Jolivet (1922-2020), who was a specialist in Chrysomelids.[1] To date (2025), species have only been found in Taiwan.[2]

- Jolibrotica chujoi (Chujo, 1963) Kimoto, 1969
- Jolibrotica sauteri (Chujo, 1935) – type species (as Luperus sauteri Chûjô)
