Western Cedar Borer (Trachykele blondeli) on Dec 21, 2020
Originally reported as Emerald Ash Borer (Agrilus planipennis)
Submitter does not have a specimen
Description of specimen
It’s a jewel bug and it looks just like an emerald ash borer
great observation. Yes, it is a jewel bug, but, fortunately, it is NOT the invasive Emerald Ash Borer. The specimen the young "entomologist" is holding is actually a native jewel bug. So, great work. Thank you, Helmuth Rogg
