Quilnus heidemanni
Only a few species in Quilnus with the antennae not more robust than the profemur. This one is known from northern California.

Moved from Quilnus.

That's why they're called "Flat Bugs" :)
Family Aradidae, in the Guide here.

I'm sure one of the experts will be able to take the ID further.

Welcome to BugGuide!
