having second thoughts..
placed this in H. blaisdelli originally partly based off the fact that it is widespread in North America, but the antennae have me second guessing myself. H. blaisdelli has a 2-segmented club (the first club segment being barely larger than the segment before it) vs. a 3-segmented club in H. elongatula. some of the H. blaisdelli pics i've seen on here appear to have a much more defined 2-segmented club than what i'm seeing here, so i'm hoping someone else can weigh in.

the pronotum of H. blaisdelli is also lighter in color compared to the darker colored elytra (the dorsal pic of this specimen seems to reflect that, although it's not as dark of a specimen compared to the rest of those on here).

both are potential state records for GA as far as i know
