Don, you surprise me, identifying a Silken Fungus Beetle. I thought you didn't like this family:-)

Henotiderus obesulus
Reasonably common here.

I confirm
. . . and also have no safe idea about the genus - but for sure it is one new to the guide. If you still have it, please keep it. I have a friend who is specialist of the family, and he´ll figure out!

Cryptophagini
Probably a Cryptophagini, but I can't say the genus.
