The "suggest a missing species" is not working at the moment. I would suggest Calomela parilis (Acacia leaf beetle), visit:

Personally I think its closer to C. bartoni than parilis. The former is the common local species.

No black on head, lateral on pronotum, scutellum. Black suture line does not go all the way along. Vittae band is wavy not straight.
