Metrioidea


Metrioidea is a genus of skeletonizing leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. It is found in Fiji and New Caledonia. Additional species attributed to the genus are known from the Nearctic, Neotropical and Indomalayan realms, but these may actually belong to other genera. Metrioidea species from the New World are very similar to those in the genera Lilophaea, Luperodes and Monolepta.
