This looks like a click beetle, named so because they can snap their bodies so hard that they can flip and it makes an audible click.

I grew up knowing these things as being called a leaf bug.

This looks like a Palo Verde beetle. I caught several in Arizona when I visited. But in South Dakota? I don't think they live up here.
