New smallest beetle, plus mites! - Bacanius punctiformis Nashua, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, USA May 14, 2006 Size: approx. .676 - .804 mm
Nice shot of the pygidium (hind end) shape on the histerid.
You'll notice that even mites have mites, to recoin a line from a famous little poem about fleas.
