Seedcorn Beetle - Stenolophus infuscatus

Seedcorn Beetle - Stenolophus infuscatus
Mobile (Dog River), Mobile County, Alabama, USA
November 21, 2010
Ideas on this roll'n'pleated, two-tone beetle? This is the only image I was able to get.

Moved from Stenolophina.

It's not like my Seedcorn. It does resemble Stenolophus comma, but don't think enough info in photo to post higher than genus.. Thanks, -v-

Moved from Beetles.

 
Check against "Stenolophus infuscatus"
which has a characteristic dorsal dark color pattern similar to your specimen. I'm away from references and will check deeper later.

 
Looks Good
Peter,
I see S. infuscutus also has a lighter streak between elytra and distribution is right. Hopefully, I can find another tonight and get some better photos. As always, thank you for your help.

Stenolophina: ?Acupalpus
