I believe this is Conotrachelus sp, but I'd appreciate confirmation and would be thrilled with species ID if there is enough in the images to key it out. Thanks!

Possible ID
I thought I had posted the host plant possibility (Sideroxylon) since it's the only tree in the yard. There were several beetles found on objects under the tree and walls near a porch light. The tree also has berries on it.

After some googling and discussion with someone much, much more knowledgeable than me, I think it might be C. similis Boheman.
