Haploa
A difficult genus with much variation within some species, but it may be some flavor of H. lecontei, as you suggest (but see comments in the lecontei link). I think H. militaris is considered either a synonym or subspecies of H. lecontei - the number of different Haploa names on this page is a good indication of how much trouble this group has given taxonomists.
