I'm sorting and tossing thousands of photos. As I do, I'm finding all sorts of things that I never identified. Can anyone ID this little beetle?

A beetle on a chewed leaf, let's try Leaf Beetles (Chrysomelidae).

Turns out to be a Case-Bearing or Patterned Leaf Beetle.

Cryptocephalus leucomelas.

On poplars, willows, and at lights.
