Moved from Scolytus.

4.5 mm is accurate enough [i cropped the ruler off]
size will narrow down the options, but probably there's not enough detail here for a sp. ID; a profile shot showing the abdomen might help

Moved from Bark and Ambrosia Beetles.

 
Thanks!
those are the only shots I have. I will need to focus on getting more angles in my photography of my blacklighting bugs this bug season.
