June 28, 2008
Size: ~2.2mm
I believe this is a member of the tribe Anacaenini (Paracymus, Crenitis, Anacaena), but I can't see the mesosternum well enough to tell which genus. Suggestions welcome :)

Moved - Thanks
Moved from Water Scavenger Beetles.

from Downie and Arnett, sounds like species ID is not recommended.

But at least these are the first for a new genus for BugGuide :)
