Axinopalpus fusciceps LeConte, 1851
Axinopalpus fusciceps LeConte, 1851
based on my microscopic examination of this specimen which is now a photo-voucher in the P.W.Messer collection. Thanks Mike.

A western "Axinopalpus" (alluding to hatchet-shaped apex of labial palp) that is colored mostly yellowish except for contrasting dark head, hence "fusciceps".
