Xantholinus longiventris
This keyed to longiventris but it's always reassuring when the genitalia match as well. This one came to light in my garden.

The previous ones were identified using Lott & Anderson (I may have also referred to Hackston) but the next one was the first one I identified using the new Duff volume. It was found in a vane trap in my garden.
