Beach Hopper - Platorchestia platensis

Beach Hopper - Platorchestia platensis
Acadia National Park, Hancock County, Maine, USA
July 23, 2013
Found alone in the middle of a rocky beach

Moved from Beach Hoppers.

Update
I found a much easier source for Talitrid IDs: (1). I'm leaning toward Platorchestia platensis due to the width of the antennae but it's hard to tell.

Talitrid indeed
I can't see the coxal plates well enough to venture a guess on it unfortunately.
