Unknown Oak Borer - Enaphalodes rufulus
Waterford, New London County, Connecticut, USA

Size: 1.5 in
I found this beetle at by our porch lights at night. Very reluctant to fly. Based on markings it looks like an oak borer, but I'm not sure. Any ID help is appreciated.

This is the Enaphalodes rufulus, the Red Oak Borer. Nice beetle!
