Chlorochroa (Rhytidolomia) sp.
With the pale midlongitudinal line in western Colorado, I think we're looking at a new species for the Guide:
C. (R.) faceta
(Say). There are three pale lined species:
C. faceta
,
C. belfragii
, and
C. saucia
. The latter two species are from the "upper Midwest" and "Atlantic and Gulf coasts", respectively (Thomas 1983). Size would help here if you still have the specimen since
C. faceta
is less than 12 mm and
C. belfragii
is greater than 12 mm in length. I also think
C. saucia
is out based on what appear to be reflexed anterolateral pronotal margins in the photo (although ranges clears that one anyway). Problem is the outer margin of the embolium looks like it might be a little dark, which doesn't fit for
C. faceta
. You'll probably want to wait for a pentatomid expert to get the ID on this one cinched.

Whoops!
This also could be
Chlorochroa (Chlorochroa) lineata
, which supposedly is distinguishable from
C. (R.) faceta
only by the male genitalia (Thomas 1983). Your specimen appears to be an adult female.
