another Eleodes? - Eleodes pimelioides
Silver Lake Marsh Campground, Lake County, Oregon, USA
June 8, 2017
Size: ~15mm
Found another farther north in the county but it was larger. Don't know if it is the same species or not. Jim Louderman will have both of these, so if there are any questions we should be able to answer them.
