Peltodytes sp.
Definitely Peltodytes - all share the two nearly round blotches at the base of the pronotum. Some Haliplus have darkened areas near the pronotal base, but they are the result of darkened punctures and are never nearly round.

Could you put a bit about you
Could you put a bit about yourself in your bio so we know who you are? While some probably know you by name, others (including myself) are not entomologists and thus don't know you....

Thanks,
Jody
