Chrysobothris cribraria?
After looking this one over lately, I'm going to withdraw my comment about it being in the C. femorata complex. Looks like Chrysobothris cribraria to me and Rick Westcott. Maybe Ted can check this one out and see what he thinks.

Chrysobothris
Definitly a Chrysobothris but I can not see any features that would make this one stand out enough to be able to id the species. It belongs to the Chrysobothris femorata complex and that is about as good as I can do.

I still haven't forgotton about sending you those specimens, I just had to submit them for a class collection. I should get them back in a couple of weeks, then I will send them along.
