Leptinotarsa decimlineata is the potato beetle with ten black lines, and theres a six striped on called Lema trilineata. I don't know if that's their larvae or not.

edited for spelling, and to say decim-lineata means 10 lined, and, obviously, tri-lineata means 3 lined (each wing). Why the ten lined isn't named 'per wing' , I don't know.
