Found a golden tortoise beetle on my morning glory this afternoon. I was out on my balcony and I saw a very bright flying thing and then there was this extremely golden beetle sitting on my plant. Apparently Ipomoea (morning glory, sweet potato, moonflower, etc) and other Convolvulaceae are host plants to that beetle, and I noticed it's got holes on some leaves so it's probably been nibbling on it. This is about the brightest beetle I've ever seen, it literally looked like jewelry.
