Analeptura lineola
The elytral pattern and barred antennae say it's A. lineola. This species flies early and hangs around for much of the summer, visiting small white or pink flowers of mostly herbaceous plants. I've even seen one feeding on milkweed blooms and one feeding on a white yarrow flowerhead.

Analeptura lineola
Looks like there is some variation in the markings of these beetles. Thanks for the ID Jim.
