Beetle eating hollyhock leaves

Baker City, OR(Zone 5b)

I picked this beetle off my hollyhocks. It is about ladybug size, light brown with a black stripe from head to tail, a partial stripe on each side with a few black dots to the rear and under that. Black underside. He is roundish like a ladybug. My hollyhocks have a lot of holes in the leaves this year. What is he? Anybody know a good biological control?
