I see records on the web for an Asclera excavata in the west, but the only pictures I have found are diagrams of certain parts, like the antennnae... which didn't rule your beetle out. That's all I can come up with

There aren't any records of them out west, though. When you click on info, sometimes there's 'range' information. Other sites too. I was googling 'Asclera Arizona' etc., didn't get too far
