As far as I know, these beetles are "Black Nail Christmas Beetles", but the dropdown menu did not list this species.

I had to switch to "global species list" in the drop down menu to access Repsimus manicatus. Maybe it hadn't been recorded close by enough.

SHNM has a small but growing data base. Always switch to global species.
