I think I'll stick with Brachysomida nigripennis...
I think I'll stick with nigripennis on this one. Typical bivittata have the central impression of the pronotum densely punctate and distinctly pubescent. It also has dense pubescence along the pronotal margins. In this image, the nearly glabrous elytral surface of nigripennis is visible - in bivitatta it has short, but distinct setae over the entire surface.
