Something in the Xantholinini

Something in the Xantholinini, classic characters not all visible and I am not familiar enough with the southern species to tell by overall appearance.

Cheers,
Adam

Thanks!

Are there any views that could help him get identified? I have him right now and could take some detailed photos.

This has the overall appearance of a Lithocharodes, but once you get away from the east you need to dissect them for species IDs :(

Cheers,
Adam
