Conotrachelus leucophaeatus
I think this is Conotrachelus leucophaeatus. Conotrachelus obesulus (based on the type images on the MCZ database) looks like it might be an abraded Conotrachelus leucophaeatus. I have not seen any other specimens of it....

Correction
After reexamining my specimens I believe you may be correct. I will make the correction.In my defense, of the specimens I have on hand the one specimen I identified as leucophaeatus is much slimmer than the several that I identified as obesulus. Whether or not the eyes are more or less contiguous is a matter of interpretation. Thanks for taking the time to review photo. So, how do I delete the extension that says obesulus.
