Black Beetle on Cholla Cactus - Moneilema armatum

Black Beetle on Cholla Cactus - Moneilema armatum
Albuquerque, Bernalillo County, New Mexico, USA
June 6, 2010
Size: 1.5" or so.
First thought was Broad-necked Darkling Beetle, but the antennae don't look right. Any thoughts, folks?

Ian Smith: "looks a lot like M. armatum"

 
M. armatum
