M. sexstriatus?
Seems to match up pretty well with M. sexstriatus in Caterino's 2010 treatment of the California Margarinotus. Not sure if there are any AZ species that may not be covered in that paper.

You might want to seek out other expert opinion.

After viewing these images, Bill Warner said: "Probably M. sexstriatus (LeConte)"
That would be a "new" species for BugGuide.

Thank you Jeff!
A new genus for me and for the AZ BugGuide data map.
