Styloleptus biustus
The broadly angulate pronotal margins and that dark marking on the elytra, with the coloration of the apical third dark, help distinguish this species.

As a double-check if you see this species again - look to see if the blackish vitta along the elytral epipleuron extends all the way forward to the lower margin of the pronotum. It's not visible in your image, but it's a sure character to ID this one in the eastern U.S. See image # 307029 for a good view of this character...
