Uloma punctulata In a highly rotted log in a dense mixed forest. Not sure of this genus-level ID. I&#039;m assuming some sort of Tenebrionid though.<br />
<br />
This might be a GA first (at least it is on iNaturalist)! Seems to be a pretty rare sight:<br />

Uloma punctulata

In a highly rotted log in a dense mixed forest. Not sure of this genus-level ID. I'm assuming some sort of Tenebrionid though.
