Expert Response

Hi Diana,

We would need to have a sample of the beetle to be able to examine it to make that determination--many species, especially the grey/spotted varieties, look extremely similar.  You could bring a sample to your county Extension office to begin that ID process; in terms of management, though, the species will not make much difference.

Cordially,

John
