Description: This beetle, Glischrochilus quadrisignatus, was photo-documented dropping out of a pawpaw flower on 16 May 2021 at Marc Boone's pawpaw orchard near Ann Arbor, Michigan. An even smaller beetle, Stelidota geminata, was also photo-documented. Both beetles were documented in abundance lurking in the depths of pawpaw flowers among a pair of horticultural pawpaws in Ypsilanti, Michigan, on May 17, 19, and 20 of 2021. Pollen grains are visible at the mouth and two near the rear.
