Ophryas
Saw that vertical back end thing going on there but after looking at a horde of broad-nosed beetles, I for some reason thought Geonemini. Insects are a bit much this late in life but I will keep at it. Thank you for your expertise and tireless efforts to help identify critters at BugGuide.net. I. e., Danke schön!
