Need to ponder more on this one. The black terminal areas of the elytra are not jagged enough for what is typically seen in fernadezi, but on the other hand are not as rounded as seen in arizonensis. It is sure to be one of those two, though.

 
I just moved a very similar one from Texas
Maybe Joe Cicero should give his opinion

 
thanks
i agree. I have several shots of other individuals that are even more difficult to distinguish b/t the two spp.
