Alder leaf beetle

The Alder leaf beetle (Agelastica alni) is a species in the genus Agelastica. It is currently classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. Typically found in virtually all terrestrial and freshwater habitats.

This aerobic chemoheterotroph decomposes organic matter in freshwater systems and contributes to aquatic nutrient cycling.
