If not friend why friend shaped?

I -love- big beetles. There’s just something about that perfect design. Maybe a type of darkling beetle? #bugid #beetleid 🪲

Can anyone help please with id of this green "beetle" found in the garden on a sweetcorn plant. Photo heavily cropped. About 7 spot ladybird size. Thanks @clydesidewild.bsky.social #beetleid #weirdbugs

We found this beetle while picking up litter in the Valley a couple of days ago. Despite looking green in the photo, in the hand it seemed blacker. We were wondering about Chrysolina oricalcia, but would appreciate a second opinion.
