confusing staph -
Achenomorphus corticinus
Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, USA
April 2, 2014
Size: 2.5mm
Not a great shot, but it kept falling over and tumbling around and this was the only pic I got of it in a good position.

agreed
But the size given seems way off -
Achenomorphus corticinus
is a lot bigger than 2.5 mm.
