I had John Rawlins identify them - they are difficult to ID to a species level. Do you have moisture in the area of the traps? Let me know if you want me to swing by and take a look.

It measures a little more than 1.5 mm long. It seems to have 9 or so small ridges along each side of its thorax. We also caught this small larva, Trap#5033-3b, in the same area. It measures less than 1.5 mm long. It was alive when captured. Any ideas? Latridiidae maybe? Thanks! ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: the warhol: John Samuel Jacobs, MLIS Assistant Registrar for Collections 117 Sandusky Street Pittsburgh, PA 15212 T 412.237.8312 F 412.237.8340 E jaco...@warhol.org<mailto:jaco...@warhol.org> W www.warhol.org<http://www.warhol.org> The Andy Warhol Museum One of the four Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: The information contained in this message and/or attachments is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
