Unidentified Crimson Beetle - Stenelytrana emarginata

Unidentified Crimson Beetle - Stenelytrana emarginata
Ridgeland, Madison County, Mississippi, USA
May 29, 2018
Size: 3.5cm
When I first saw this beetle, I thought it was a large wasp due to its bright colors and loud drowning, as well as the position of the legs. It produced a foul smell when captured. I think it might be some sort of flower longhorn beetle, but I am not sure.
