Beetle?? #318813

Asked May 04, 2016, 4:02 PM EDT

I spotted quite a few of these on the Phlox in the my garden. After searching through books and online, I'd not been able to figure out the proper identity of these beetles. Your help with this is very much needed and appreciated. Thank you. stephen
