Acrotrichis sp.
Specimen now a photo-voucher, thanks John.

I can confirm genus but no further.

ventral shots really help with these guys!
btw, if you want 'John Rosenfeld' in the Copyright line, just leave it blank, it's default setting; only fill when posting someone else's pics

Moved from Featherwing[ed] Beetles.

 
Thanks
I didn't add my name to the copyright line, not sure how it got there?

 
it was there in the ventral view form
...for some reason; never mind

 
Sorry
it was getting filled in by my browsers auto-fill feature when I filled in the city field, I didn't notice because it wasn't visible.

 
i see
the auto-fill tools tend to get out of hand...
people often inadvertently get those pesky state abbreviations in the City field when the thing's enabled

 
I removed it
but It seems to keep filling itself back in when I post new photos. I don't know what's up with it. I looked to see if there is a preference in my user info but didn't see anything, odd.
