In addition to the characters...
...already known for separating this species from the similar U. despectus, Lingafelter (2007) mentioned the white marking on the medial sutural area - you can see it real good in this picture, a nice character to use when the others (elytral apices, scutellum, etc.) aren't quite so visible.

Urographis fasciatus (male).
Reasonably positive that this is a male of Urographis fasciatus. Nice shots!
