The beetle looks like a minute brown scavenger beetle family Latridiidae, genus
malanophthalma. Not sure of species.
Genus name would be spelled Melanophthalma, but see my previous post on another
genus.

John,
I have identified these at CMNH - so we definitely have them in the museum
system here in Pittsburgh. 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.

Greetings pestlisters,
We caught this small beetle, Trap#5022-1a, in a sticky trap on 4/30/2014 in
Pittsburgh PA.
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!
