Tiger beetle - Cicindelidia punctulata

Tiger beetle - Cicindelidia punctulata
New Hampshire, USA
July 14, 2006
I'm not sure if this is the same species as the image I just posted from the same location (Cicindela punctulata, evidently). This one has some light markings visible at the tips of the elytra. I see that C. punctulata sometimes has markings like this, but in the examples on BugGuide it seems they are always accompanied by markings elsewhere on the elytra.

punctulata
This is also C. punctulata. If you look closely, you can see the pits along the elytral suture.
