I think this is
Zopherus tristis. I think the last review was by Triplehorn (1972). There are some photos on the Harvard MCZ website. I'll add reference in a bit.

Links
are created by following steps here: 1. I've also added references to new species page 2, click on 'edit', and you'll see the entry in BBCode or HTMLCode for some. Have also added the Triplehorn reference to genus page (was surprised it wasn't already there).
