Moved, thanks Chris
I was snooping in that area but missed this one somehow!

Please try to submit images of dried, properly-curated specimens (if not 'live' images); images of insects in liquid can often be misleading (although these pics are pretty sharp!)

Moved from ID Request.

Thank you for the suggestion-
Thank you for the suggestion--most of my specimens are in alcohol, and are very small. I am unable to pin the small ones with the equipment I have, but will try to post pinned specimens when possible.

Other possible option may be Chrysomelidae or Cantharidae?
