Black Beetle -
Physocnemum brevilineum

We have never seen a beetle with such enlarged femurs as these. Any help with ID appreciated.
Thanks,

Seems to be a good year for these guys. I'm basing my ID on information given here:
http://bugguide.net/node/view/791487
. I'm hoping someone with more experience with this genus will take a look to confirm the ID.
A very cool beetle -- I'm envious.
