Have to narrow it down to one of the following beetle families.
Some examples of the following families:
Cryptophagidae, Mycetophagidae, certain Silvanidae, Erotylidae (Xenoscelinae), 
certain Latridiidae
I’m sure yours are moisture-related.

Subject: [pestlist] Small Beetles Found on Wooden Logs

Hi List Group,

Semi urgent ID request from all of you! These beetles were found on raw wooden 
logs/wooden discs that we have in our gallery. The logs sit in a pool of water, 
but we had drained the water out for cleaning. We noticed them on top of the 
logs and one was flying in the air. 5 total. One looks to be darker and 
different from the others, one has wings that can be seen off of the back end, 
and one looks like a juvenile.

Any ID help would be greatly appreciated!

Best
Christina
