Field Notes

Habitat:

Found under dead bark on an island of the Rock River while kayaking.

Notes:

There were hundreds of these fungus beetles under dead bark on this single island. We visited 6 other islands on the Rock River and didn't find another one of these cool beetles. This is first sighting for me with this species.
