Buprestis lyrata ?

[lguez]

Hi,

I saw this beetle in the Grand Teton Park in en of August, I checked on the Bug Guide page and under the Naturalist page and it seems that Buprestis lyrata correspond to my photo. but I hesitated with Buprestis maculiventris

Am I right or is it another beetle ?

Why did you post the same photos here collector-secret.proboards.com/thread/3129/atlantoraphidia-maculicollis but with different name and locality data?

yes it is some bad copy past from the 1st french forum where I posted them:

insecte.org (Buprestis)


insecte.org (Raphidiidae)

but as it is some american insects they prefer I ask this forum to check them.
