On mahoe. ID based both on Eyles & Carvalho 1991 who record this species as widespread in NZ including Banks Peninsula, & our tragically departed Stephen Thorpe’s observations http://www.inaturalist.org/observations/4662677
There were about 8 of these little beetles inside this shell eating (maybe) the shell’s dead occupant.
A bit less than 1mm long, found on a Camellia flower.
