Stenolophus incultus Casey
Stenolophus incultus Casey is my physical determination. Thank you Jim for this species new to BugGuide. While the photo might suggest it, no mentum tooth is actually present.

Bradycellus?
I can see a mentum tooth in the ventral shot, I think. That combined with the small size and Harpaline-like appearance make me think Bradycellus, but I could definitely be wrong.
I hope someone more experienced with western Bradycellus chimes in, this looks like a species we might not have in the guide yet.
