First and last instar larva and pupa of Laccoptera foveolata (Boheman, 1856) are described in detail along with notes on the life history. The beetles were observed to breed from June to August. The host plant of the insect is Ipomoea nil (Convolvulaceae), as the entire life cycle is completed on this plant. A small, oval ootheca containing a single egg is partially covered by fecal matter. There are five larval instars; the larvae and pupa are typical for the specialized cassidines. Imagines develop in about 35-40 days from the fertilized egg deposited in the ootheca.
