a is pensylvanica
I think species a must be Disonycha pensylvanica. your series (and the other pictures in the guide under this species) fit the description very well: http://www.ag.auburn.edu/aaes/communications/beetles/disonycha.htm#pensylvanica

note especially the underside shot with a lighter last segment and black on the epipleura
