Tennebrionid is my guess
The antennal clubs are mainly what makes me think so. I know of no leaf beetles that have this feature. I'll hazard a guess that this is a female Neomida bicornis. See guide.

Neomida bicornis
That makes sense, because I found about 15 of them together under a piece of bark. It does look just like your pictures in the guide. Thanks Jim.
