Hello All!

Could you give me any information at least the family level regarding this small beetle?
Location: Hungary
Size: max 2-3 mm.
Plant: Privet (Ligustrum vulgare).
Thank you in advance!

Hi, not easy to see but I'm quite confident it's a Brassicogethes aeneus (Nitidulidae).

Greetings, Eric

Thank you Eric!

It is not my best photo and unfortunately very few details are visible due to the poor quality but I am glad that I can put it to the right group now.
