Aspidimorpha

***Aspidimorpha*** er en artsrik slekt av biller som tilhører familiegruppen bladbiller (Chrysomelidae). Både larvene og de voksne (imago) er planteetere.

## Utseende
Middelsstore, brede, gjerne brokete fargede skjoldbiller. Kroppen er dekket av pronotum og dekkvinger som danner et skjold, dette er hvelvet og ikke så flatt som hos mange andre skjoldbiller. Hodet er lite, antennene tynne og rundt halvparten så lange som kroppen, som er oval. Pronotum er noe rundet, beina forholdsvis korte.

## Levevis
Både larver og voksne lever på planter og eter fra dem. Denne gruppen lever for det meste på bananplanter, bambus og planter i ingefærfamilien.

## Utbredelse
Gruppen er utbredt i Afrika og Asia.

## Systematisk inndeling

Hispinae inkluderer noen ganger gruppen (underfamilien) skjoldbiller, da som stammen Cassidini, i denne oversikten er den holdt utenfor, og plassert inn i som søstergruppen skjoldbiller. Andre klassifikasjoner plasserer denne gruppen (som Hispini) som en undergruppe av skjoldbillene.
