Oohh I caught one of these Tiger Beetles a few weeks ago. They are scary for their fast twitchy movement.

I think you're right about Cicindela punctulata; the markings and range seem to be correct at least. Thank you!

Could be this one http://bugguide.net/node/view/578 , but kindly confirm with others :)
