Agrilus auroguttatus is a species of jewel beetle in the United States, known by the common name goldspotted oak borer. Native to southeastern Arizona, it is best known for its probably invasive presence in California, destroying stands of oak trees in the Cleveland National Forest in San Diego County. It was originally considered a subspecies of the Central American species Agrilus coxalis, and much of the literature refers to it by this name, but now it is regarded as a separate species, known only from Arizona and California.
