I believe the EAB is an overall vibrant metallic green. The one in your photo seems to be more of a bronze color, but it may just be the photo. If it is indeed an EAB you must send it to the proper authorities immediately for confirmation, it is a serious pest and areas where it is found must be quarantined to prevent its spread.
