well, i'll be gobsmacked
I guess the apparent "wideness" had more to do with the posture of the bug and the camera angle. Thanks for the ID, and for your other recent moves, too.

 
The difference in the "wideness" is not so critical.
Instead, please focus on overall color of dorsal surface and the color of antennae and legs. In particular, pale legs with a dark spot on each femur are very distinctive.

Please compare with my another photo.


 
Thanks!
