Size
It is less than a mm in length. Dorsal view is hard to get because it is in ethanol and doesn't want to stay in one position. He has little setae all over his elytra and 2 more "horns" at the top of his head.

Ciid
You can dry it out for a few minutes and try for a dorsal (it won't hurt it and you can put it back in the alcohol). A lateral might also be helpful.

Otherwise its hard to put past family level.

Ciidae
Can you measure size and add a dorsal view?
