False Blister Beetle - Xanthochroa lateralis

False Blister Beetle - Xanthochroa lateralis
Mobile (Dog River), Mobile County, Alabama, USA
May 12, 2011
Looks similar to the blister I recently posted, except the pronotum markings are different from Pseudozonitis longicornis. Also the pronotum appear to be more concave the convex. What might it be? Thanks

pls make sure to photograph everything that looks +-like this... dying to see a mugshot (shape of the eye, the muzzle, etc.)

Moved from False Blister Beetles.
