I found them today in one of my gardens. They are approx. 1\4 inch in length. The seem to hang out several together as well as individuals on their own. They are mostly at the tops of my plants (rudbeckia, phlox, astible, bee balm) so they don't seem to be attracted to a particular plant. My local garden centre couldn't help out and I've looked in all my gardening books as well as online, but no luck. I don't know if they are beneficial or not. Can you help my identify these critters?
Sincerely,

Can anyone help me identify these bugs\beetles I found in my garden?
Could be lots and lots of things. A detailed description (colors, patterns, smooth/shiny/rough/dull, big/small head, long/short/feathery antennae, etc.) or a photo link would be necessary.
Reply:Perhaps if you try giving a slightly more detailed description than '1/4" in length and hang out in groups or individually in a variety of flowering plants', someone might be able to help.
Reply:if you start getting holes in the leaves or brown spots then you know they are eating your plant and killing it. i would get a bug spray and get rid of them
Reply:What color or colors are they? There's a beetle called a cockchaffer (honestly!). Check that out. Do fireflies live around you? That's another possibility. Really, more information is needed. Good luck.
