New pic is about 100X better then the original "thumbnail".
I am going out on a limb and call this Acmaeodera depressa. Seldom collected species not yet in BugGuide. (Now confirmed by The Expert. Please make a space for it.) Thanks.

Not Acm. retifera.
Overall body form is wrong. Best guess is Acm. cuneata but the pic is not really useable.
