Moved, Selatosomus edwardsi
Upon examination of your specimen with black elytra, I realized this is a color variant of C. edwardsi!

Also, this specimen was among those you sent to me :)

Moved from Selatosomus festivus.

thanks Blaine
That's a funny (and somewhat embarrassing) series of mistakes I made. One of the "mistakes" was assuming those two were the same species, which turned out to be true, but at the same time, when labeling the vials, I failed to recognize this specimen as the one I had photographed. Glad I sent it anyway!
