Lathrobium (Lathrobioma) sp., female
Moved from Lathrobium. ID verified from specimen, now a photo-voucher. Thanks Tom.

The subgenus is tentative, but seems to be in Lathrobioma as described by Casey (1905). Genus probably needs revision before species names can be reliably placed. Seems to be close to L. scolopaceum (Casey), though his keys are noxious.

Moved from Rove Beetles.

Lathrobium would be my guess.
