Beetle - Dendrophilus xavieri - male

Beetle - Dendrophilus xavieri - Male
Deane, Letcher County, Kentucky, USA
April 21, 2014
Size: 3 mm
Found in leaf litter.

Dendrophilus xavieri Marseul, male
Moved from Dendrophilus. ID'd from specimen, now a photo-voucher. Thanks Lisa.

Another specimen in the vial of the same genus, but different species. It is female so I hesitate to put a name on it (seems closest to D. kiteleyi or opacus)

Moved
Not sure on species. I usually dissect any specimens I get for species ID.

Moved from Beetles.

Perhaps Histeridae
as here.

 
Thanks.
Guess I need a better image and ventral view.
