I agree
Yes, I agree. I have been looking into this specimen and got to the same place. There is an old records that never got picked up in the Beetles of Canada but I hope to look at the specimen when I can get to that collection. As for species I can only guess as the most likely is only known from females and I have yet to try and dissect this one

Thanks for the confirmation
I was a little shocked when I got it under the scope. It is always nice to stumble across another family.
