Moved
Moved from undescribed sp 1. In Lisa's picture, it has a more Lopheros look to it (the entire median carina), but the posterior half on the specimen is hard to make out under the scope. The genitalia of this beetle is probably closest to L. crenata but looks different enough to me to suspect this is undescribed. Size is 5.5 mm
