Moved from Rove Beetles.
Adam, these roves you're identifying are really adding new species to the guide!

Bryoporus?
Unlikely, but worth a shot.

This does look like Bryoporus
This does look like Bryoporus, I think testaceus because the punctures are arranged more loosely

I just came across some testaceus
in my samples, I think this one could be rufescens instead, as the punctures all seem setiferous and rather uniform, compared to this one! I'll upload high-res pictures of my testaceus soon

I was using elytral punctation in my genus diagnosis!
