Another tiny bracket fungus beetle - Sericoderus

Another tiny bracket fungus beetle - Sericoderus
Nashua, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, USA
November 12, 2005
Size: 1.5 mm approx.
Found while picking apart a tough, thick-lobed little bracket fungus growing on a small stump. It is very similar to another that I photographed and posted earlier that came from a long-dead squirrel carcass:

another sighting...
got a similar species in Detroit in pitfalls in garden areas with logs/wood chips

Corylophidae, Sericoderus sp.
Genus Sericoderus, no one really knows the species at this time.

 
Excellent!
Another new family for bugguide! Thank you Don.
