Thanks
I was looking at the P. (Abacidus) sculptus photos that I had of the one I found last summer about 30 miles from here and they looked similar but not quite the same, so I wasn't sure. I have another beetle but will have to wait until tomorrow to post it because I have already posted my limit of three today. :/
