Nitidulidae - Nitidula carnaria

Nitidulidae - Nitidula carnaria
Colfax, Placer County, California, USA
August 10, 2020
Size: 2.4 mm
UV 20 watt bucket trap collection.
9 mi. south of Colfax, on Pine Lake Dr., 666 m elevation (2,185 ft), 39.0651, -120.9440

Can't find anything like this dark color with the 4 orange spots on elytra and a couple hours with keys I'm not sure what genus (& sp.) of Nitidulidae this is.

Hopefully the extra pictures will help with id since they were the items I ran into mostly in the keys. If id is successful, and some pictures don't add to information, please let me know and I'll frass them (or feel free to do so).

Thanks.
