Lebia - Lebia atriventris
Temple Hills, Prince George's County, Maryland, USA
May 27, 2019
Size: 6-7 mm
Atriventris? Too small for L. grandis from the info I see here, but the striations on the elytra look deeper than most of the L. atriventris images. I'm sure there's some other stuff I'm completely missing, too.

Decide if you are comfortable with "Lebia atriventris"
for this image.

That
was my initial thought. It was closer to 6 mm, so too small for L. grandis. Perhaps the striations appear deeper because of the way the light was hitting it.

Unless there is another possible species I am unaware of, I'd go with L. atriventris.
