Conotrachelus aratus (Germar), female
ID tentatively confirmed from specimen, now a photo-voucher. Thanks Tom.

Females are tough to tell apart from C. tibialis.

dying to know what it is... aratus?
with this narrow, rather cylindrical, coarsely punctate pronotum, elongate, parallel-sided elytra, and the pale band with straight anterior edge; wondering what the elytra elytra look like in profile view
an abraded juglandis? the ridges don't match elegans

Conotrachelus aratus
We should get a confirmation eventually. It's either with Brad already in the huge batch I sent earlier, or in another batch I have waiting to ship to him.

yeah, i know
Tom, never mind my rant and feel free not to respond; it's just my getting restless at times when tired of the routine updating endless guide pages
