Staphylinidae - Quedius
Victoria, British Columbia, Canada
November 12, 2016
Found deceased on some moss. Quite curious as to what is growing out of the joints, a fungus? There was a larva maybe a foot away that was absolutely covered in a similar looking fungus(?). Will post a photo of the larva as soon as i can get to it.
