Thank you Gary and Daniel Marlos

It's a banded netwing beetle, Calopteron reticulatum. Daniel runs an informative website: http://www.whatsthatbug.com/ I emailed the picture to him and he kindly replied with the identification and Latin name.

Funny you should say that, Deb. That's exactly what I used for a search on Google! :0)

Dunno, but this must be what all the well dressed bugs are wearing for Fall this year.
I would guess a Halloween bug. - Deb

Yup, I also thought he was wearing a pretty knitted outfit. Have not clue what he is, but the photo is so realistic looking that I think he just wiggled his rear leg. Outta here...

First thing I thought of was a peanut shell : ) Don't know what it is but glad it's at your house : )
