The third from the top is not actually a beetle, though. It's a lantern fly (peanut-headed bug, machaca) of the genus Fulgora, perhaps Fulgora laternaria. It's a true bug or hemipteran.

True. It’s definitely which one of these things doesn’t belong. I used the museum’s description as reference but they did get it wrong.
