Came across this unusual small #Beetle while out and about ,not sure what the two side appendages are......legs ? although I thought Beetle species only had three pairs .It was about 4mm in length ,but could leap like a Grasshopper. Any ideas please @ianbeavis.bsky.social #ukbeetles#insects

Mating pair of Galeruca tanaceti beetles, West Monkseaton, Thursday. I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a gravid beetle before
