Recently obtained by night an interesting, slender, ca 10mm length, staphylinid-like beetle (pectinated antennae, free hindwings differ from it, I think). ID help at least family level is needed. Thanks a lot. Muhabbet

Probably a male Phengodidae (US "glowworm").

Many thanks John for your help. It fits to the original description of Cydistus zurcheri.
