Bolbo - Bolborhombus sallei
Montosa Canyon, Santa Cruz County, Arizona, USA
August 19, 2009
Size: 11 mm
Pronotum and striation of elytra seems different fro the Bolbocerastes imperialis that I've found a couple of imes at our house in the Tucson desert.
This one was found at the Mnt Hopkins Observatory Visitor Center

It's Bolborhombus sallaei. It's barely visible in these photos, but the first two elytral striae terminate into the scutellum, separating it from Bolbocerastes.
