CLOSED: Help please in identifying this bug (beetle)

Bourgougnague, France

Looks like I may have previously posted this on the wrong forum, apologies for that.

I am presuming this is a type of leaf beetle as it seems to live on leaves surrounding my garden in S W France. It is a little under 2cm in length and as can be seen in the photo is basically red with black stripes. The bit sticking out from its right side looks like a wing so maybe it has the ability to fly.
Any help in identification would be appreciated. I have looked through the beetle selection on here but there does not seem to be anything that comes close.
Thank you for looking
