Hello Again ! Can You Help?

I found this beetle walking along the wall around my porch lights. I discovered it in the spring at night time, where all sorts of insects appear! It is one of the weirdest beetles I have ever seen. (note the thorax). I’ve had quite a lot identified on your website, and hope you can continue to help the poor, helpless public. Thanks!

Hi Luke,
This is a Long Necked Ground Beetle, Colliuris pensylvanica. According to BugGuide, it is found : “In leaf litter and under logs and stones, and on vegetation in wet areas”
