Thanks Jolly, I am noo expert on the click beetles. I can't tell which it is only based on a photo. I changed the sighting to Diplostethus sp until an expert in this field can make a judgement. Thanks for the help!!!!!!

Hi! I tried to look for its ID but I can't find the exact one. Please take a look at the following: https://www.sdstate.edu/ps/Severin-McDan... and https://www.sdstate.edu/ps/Severin-McDan...

This is most definitely a click beetle but I can't tell you anything more than family.
