Not an expert but...
...this looks to belong in Tylozygus. Maybe T. fasciatus or T. bifidus...

Thanks Ron. You seem to be correct. It looks most like
fasciatus to me based on the width of the light stripes.

Tylozygus bifidus
Sorry, but the width of the stripes is not the differentiating character of T. fasciatus; that species has the front margin of the thorax distinctly orange-brown bordered on its hind margin, very unlike the black or dark brown fore border of T. bifidus.
