Submitter does not have a specimen

Description of specimen

Shiny metallic green bug. See photos.

Commentary

Awesome picture! This luckily is the Golden Jewel Beetle (Bubrestis Aurulenta). Native to the Northwest. This bug is allowed to live free and wild, no need to exterminate, and you will continue to find them this time of year.
