Rove Beetle - Habrocerus capillaricornis

Looks like Tachyporinae for sure, although the really slender antennae are throwing me off. Any ideas on genus?

Right feeling
. . . you had! The antennae distinguish Tachyporinae and Habrocerinae - like this one. I guess there will be no other genus besides Habrocerus in your fauna?

Yes...
Habrocerus is our only genus, with three species being recorded in Canada including the Holarctic capill*iaricornis.
