cotinisDescription
Marsh Conehead - Neoconocephalus palustris (female, body length ~32 mm)--correction, appears to be a female, as noted by a commenter on BugGuide.
SINA summarizes ID:
"A small-to-medium, secretive conehead with a slightly pinched cone that is immaculate beneath. Lower margins of hind femur darker near bases of spines."
Both characters visible here. This species is widespread, but seldom documented. There are currently (8/18/24) three observations on BugGuide and nine on iNaturalist.

@kenneth_g would you please have a look? CV suggested Lepturges angulatus but this seems like a closer match, though way out of range. Thanks!

Protórax encontrado en la hojarasca. Comparándolo con otro que había encontrado y fotos de ambas especies de Cheloderus, me parece corresponde a C.penai.
