Beat from pine tree and collected. Long rostrum keys this to Aradus in How to Know the True Bugs, but I'm not sure if that genus has been split now?

Det. K Grebennikov from iNat images, who commented:
"There are only 2 species of the genus similar to the European A. cinnamomeus in the United States (and both were first reported as this species, although it does not exist in North America):

A. kormilevi is smaller and narrower, with unicolored antennae.
A. antennalis - larger and broader, with contrastingly bicolored 3rd antennal segment.
They are distinguished from all other species by very short (no longer or scarcely longer than head) and thick antennae, and short and broad pronotum with weakly developed carinae.
