Seeking ID for Oedemerid (?) - Cortodera falsa

Seeking ID for Oedemerid (?) - Cortodera falsa
Webb Canyon, ~2000 ft. elevation, Los Angeles County, California, USA
May 14, 2009
Just wanted to add a shot of this guy on the Agave where I found him (prior to transferring him to a plastic plate to get some cleaner shots). I was hoping to further demonstrate that when viewed in the shade the pronotum is reddish in color, as opposed to the more orange appearance seen in direct sunlight.

Please also see comments on initial linked image.
