Potato Beetle - Leptinotarsa

Potato Beetle - Leptinotarsa
Linthicum Heights, Anne Arundel County, Maryland, USA
July 5, 2018
I think this beetle is Colorado Potato Beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata).
can you confirm that it this beetle is Colorado Potato Beetle not False Potato Beetle (Leptinotarsa juncta)
I found this beetle on a Bittersweet Nightshade plant growing along the fence separating the Andover Equestrian Center from the BWI Trail.

ID
