nice find Jim
hope Donald can identify it to species. N. nigricornis seems the most likely. All species are found on Potamogeton

Yes, I need to send Don a few beetles.
Here is the only image I turned up for nigricornis in several google image pages: http://www.cedarcreek.umn.edu/insects/newslides/024107003001apd.jpg
The only other species on the NH checklist is melshei*meri.

Here is a link to Potamogeton.

Neohaemonia sp.
If you still have it, I would like to get it. Color pattern is different from the species in the collection.

This one I did pickle, Don, and it's yours.
Thanks for the ID. This is a new genus for bugguide in Donaciinae.
