non-fanged nit - Amphicrossus ciliatus - female

non-fanged nit - Amphicrossus ciliatus - Female
Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, USA
This looks to me like the same species as the fang-backed nit, but it has no fang-like protusions on its elytra. My guess is that this one is a female while the other is a male.
