Insect Identification

Good evening all,
    Does anyone know of a good insect identification site online?  We found a beautiful insect on the leucothoe today, put some in a jar and took them to one of our favorite landscape nurseries.  They did not know what it was and I would like to identify it.  There does not seem to be any damage to the plant, so it may be a beneficial.  The insects have 6 legs, a beetle type body--bright red lower 'shell' with an iridescent green stripe down the middle, antenna, a sucker-tube mouth, and are about 1/4" long.  Any ideas?
 
Thanks,
