When I first saw this beetle on the vinyl siding I thought it was some sort of small fly because of its delicate legs. On closer examination it proved to be a pretty little softwinged flower beetle that several others have posted here. This beetle was a very good flyer and flew out of my light arena during the photo shoot for parts unknown, For days I looked for it at the windows, where I assumed it would fly in hopes of an exit. No luck :-( Consequently I have no shots of it with my metric ruler in view and can only guess at its size.
