Corticaria impressa
Corticaria serrata
Corticaria umbilicata
Beetles of this genus have a small transverse scutellum .[1] [2] In most species, the pronotum has a round impression before the base.[3] [4] The prosternum has a pubescent (hairy) impression in front of each fore coxa, also visible from the sides.[1] [2] The sides of the prothorax are slightly dentate (toothed).[2] [4] The tarsi of all legs have three segments, as with all Latridiidae.[5] In males, the first tarsomere of the fore tarsus is dilated.[1] [4]
In North America, this genus can be recognised by being >1.8 mm long and having rather elongate elytra.[3]
Corticaria in nature live on mouldy substances, bark, wood waste, leaf litter, decaying seaweed and flowering vegetation.[1] [6] They can also be found in artificial environments such as stables, barns and piles of wood.[1]
Adults of Corticaria impressa have been seen grazing lichens on decaying hazel bark.[6]
