Leafy beetle

I don't really know the name of this creature, but it is one of the best examples of adaptive evolution I have seen. What looks for all the world like a leaf is actually part of the bug. We saw it at a great museum maily devoted to butterflies. I was very tempted to choose one of the butterflies for today's post, but this guy won out.
