I'm pretty sure it's a leaf beetle (Chrysomelidae), but can't find anything that exactly matches the photo. I'm tempted to say Gastrophysa sp. or Chrysolina sp., but I'm not happy that it's either of these.
Lovely photo btw

Phytodecta, Chrysomelidae - wouldn't like to swear to which but quite possibly P. olivacea (although the name may have changed!). Can't see all the features that would rule out other Phytodecta.
