We are in the Low Country of South Carolina. There are lots of fig trees here in neighbors' yards. Hence the beetles are here. First time in 23 years of living in SC that I have encountered one of these. I'm really sorry I missed the photograph. I'll have to go check out the fig trees more closely.

I hope I can keep them from eating too many of the figs when I do happen to grow some!
