Sphaeroceridae, Limosiinae, perhaps
Coproica ferruginata but I am not completely aware if that species was named after the ferriginous body or perhaps just the legs.
Telomerina also is not completely black but as far as I can recall it has another colour pattern.

Yep,
Coproica ferruginata: a limosiine with many discal scutellar setae, second costal segment longer than the third, three large setae on the katepisternum and thorax red-brown.
