Please help us identify these beatles. They landed on our grape vine this summer and consumed it rapidly. We never saw them again. They were very large – an inch or so. This is the best photo we have of them. We live in Teaneck, NJ. Thank you,
Ivy
Hi Ivy,
Believe it or not, these are called Grapevine Beetles, Pelidnota punctata. The pair in the lower right is mating.
