How to check if object is an array of a certain type?

Use Type.IsArray and Type.GetElementType() to check the element type of an array.

Type valueType = value.GetType();
if (valueType.IsArray && expectedType.IsAssignableFrom(valueType.GetElementType())
{
 ...
}

Beware the Type.IsAssignableFrom(). If you want to check the type for an exact match you should check for equality (typeA == typeB). If you want to check if a given type is the type itself or a subclass (or an interface) then you should use Type.IsAssignableFrom():

typeof(BaseClass).IsAssignableFrom(typeof(ExpectedSubclass))
