Thank you!
I was almost sure to be Euphoria kerni. Almost all photos of Euphoria posted by me, this year was of insects found in Opuntia sp (possible O.macrorhiza) flower or sitting on stem or in flower of Cylindropuntia leptocaulis. But I didn't note exactly which in which plant I found it so I was not able to write the host plant. Only one was collected from a like Daisy flower and two from a Cirsium sp. flower (maybe C.texanum).

But I think that isn't any feeding connection between the beetle and like Daisy flower. All others beetles was on host plant of Euphoria kerni.
