Two species together (this one and this one) to show size and other differences.

Photographed through the side of a plastic container, in water.

thanks Crystal
Seems everyone thinks the big ones are probably crenata.

Moved from Stenelmis.

Nice pics!
The large ones are, judging from the tarsi and elytral vittae, Stenelmis crenata.

Moved
Moved from Riffle Beetles.

What a contrast,
both in size and markings.
