Cerylonidae: Cerylon sp.

I will change my mind, this is a Cerylon sp, but can't tell which of the two in this area it is.

I'll move it then.

I do see the differences Phillip mentioned.

Cerylonidae: Philothermus glabriculus

Only one Philothermus here, so that was easy. Cerylon has the anterolateral pronotal angles much more prominent.

Glad to know him by name: Philothermus glabriculus

Thank you so much, Don.

Thank you Frank

Poor little guy has been languishing for months with no ID. I'll check out your lead.

Done. Looks pretty good. I'll move it but keep the question mark. There are four species in NH according to the UNH checklist.

Sure looks right - moved and added common name per American Beetles. Another new family - great!

Thanks Phillip

Minute Bark Beetles sounds like a more practical common name than Cerylonid Beetles.
