Acilius 1 - Acilius
Fairbanks Wander Lake, Fairbanks North Star County, Alaska, USA

Fairly common in the shallows around the lake. I am submitting pictures of several individuals that look fairly distinctive, though I suspect they are all the same species.

Moved from Beetles.

Might be A. mediatus for your three pics I just moved, but I'm not sure on range.
