Very nice, Stu!
This sure looks very close to my eye for A. viridis (pronotal shape, femoral colour, punctation pattern of elytra vs pronotum), but I do not know enough to confirm/deny myself. I hope you are right and I am subscribing to the image to see whether others with more experience agree.

 
Thanks!
Thanks very much, Denis. Whatever it is, it's new to me!

 
A. viridis
I agree. This is a good bug. I've seen lots of cyaneus and attenuatus here in Maine but never this one. I think the viridis are much less commonly seen.

 
Thanks!
Thanks very much, Frank.
