Nice work guys,
I appreciate all your efforts. I will try to visit the area again, if any of you would like 'A' specimen, as they were abundant.

If you do go back I’d like some specimens. I can send you some south Texas species in return.

Lol, the one option I thought about later after I posted my comment. Glad this one found its rightful name.

If I could see the actual specimen or get an in focus lateral image. I could rule out parkeri, neglecta and quadrivittatoides for sure (if it's any of those species it is an odd one). Where you caught it seems to suggest it is not cazieri and I don't think it looks like that species anyway. My best guess would be either neglecta or potentially the new species I'm in the process of describing, found from AZ-TX.

A. quadrivattoides
Their patterns are semivariable, and more likely than cazieri or parkeri
