Soft-winged Flower Beetle
Jim, I may have mixed this one up. It was at the light outside the room. I collected it, and photographed it later with the beetles I collected by the river the next morning.

I'm thinking Mely*ridae.
I know there are some intertidal species. Maybe there are some freshwater shoreline species as well.
