This adult bug had glued hibiscus leaves to create a leaf nest. I was surprised to see it when I pried open the glued leaves. Roadside hibiscus plants have been growing on this stretch of Lentor Loop, opposite Bullion Park condo for at least the past 8 years, but today is the first time, I sighted this attractive bug and identified it via "Google Lens".
