Anelaphus pumilus
A direct dorsal view would be helpful, but these angles caught the characters needed for ID. The erect setae on the elytra and the large, shiny callosities on the pronotum separate this species from A. parallelus and A. villosus.

 
Thank you
very much. We have (at home) A. villosus annually, with adults at lights in May. Your comments on ID help a lot!

 
Glad to help!
I try to point out the details that I use to make an ID. I think it helps to say 'why' something is what it is, rather than just planting a name on it!
