Hexoplonini is nomen nudum (cf. Bousquet et al., 2009)
The right tribe is Ibidionini.

I would say Hexoplon ctenostomoides Thomson 1867.
The photo is here.

Below is a drawing from Martins, Cer. Sul Americanos, 2006:

I updated the reference to the Larry's site (a new address) in the ad above. Are you sure that this beetle is Epacroplon cruciatum (Aurivillius,1899)? It seems like E. cruciatum has no white apical spots in elytra and has a much sharper sutural spine.
