This insect was on my car. I had never seen a white bug before, so I took a picture.

Dear Marisa,
We are relatively certain this is a native Floridian Weevil known as the Little Leaf Notcher, Artipus floridanus, which we found on BugGuide, but we would not want to discount the possibility that it might be the introduced and invasive species Myllocerus undecimpustulatus undatus, which you may read about in the Department of Agriculture paper.
