Mottled T B
Yes, thanks. I included that common name when creating the Guide page in March but forgot to change the title of my posted image - which I did just now.

Hey I just thought I'd let you know that the beetle you found is a Mottled Tortoise Beetle. I had been searching for these bugs for years...and when I finally found one, this is the one I found. I'm not really sure what mine are eating, but I keep finding them in my pool.
