Clinidium baldufi
based on my microscopic examination of this photo-vouchered specimen which satisfies revised key by Bell & Bell (1975). Of "photo-type" quality for BugGuide. Thanks Jeff.

wash behind the ears
is that just "dirt" stuck around the base of the head (and other locations)? Reminds of a poor hair dye job a former NBA player used to sport.

pilosity
Don't be dissin' the D-rod.

Ross's 1970 article says these beetles have pilosity on the back of the head. This is probably a mixture of that and dirt.
