Default Camassia and lily beetle

Been noticing a little damage on some lily seedlings recently. No sign
of the Red Devils until today, when I saw one (now an inhabitant of a
world of two dimensions...) on a Camassia. No damage on the Camassia,
but I doubt the lily beetle was there as a tourist.

Anyone else ever seen lily beetles on Camassia, and actually eating
them? Camassia used to be in the Liliaceae, but isn't now. Maybe the
lily beetles know more than the taxonomists.
