Hi Joe,
Thanks for the ID. I would like to know a little more about you as I notice you seem to have a good handle on this family. By clicking on your name you arrive at your personal page where you can add a line or two about your background and experience.

When *you* say so
it's so :-)

I still would like to see a little background on his personal page. Some of us bugguiders are curious. He's the only one who can edit his personal page. He could simply add:

probably a Leptpceletes sp.
Marshall's book (1) has a picture of a different Leptpceletes sp. and the antennae are identical to this one.

Leptoceletes
It looks like that's the genus alright. I'll move it.
