Cicindela rufiventris
Cicindela abdominalis is not known from Texas, and is mostly black, not bluish-green like this. Additionally, abdominalis shows a row of deep punctures adjacent to the elytral suture, and has a granular texture to the elytra. This is Cicindela rufiventris and should be moved to that species.
