Open to ID on this one - going to use a microscope to evaluate a specimen in the days ahead.
Host plant is an aster in high elevation salt marsh conditions (possibly Symphyotrichum subspicatum).
I believe this species was recorded in this estuary previously (see UBC herbarium records).

I've always loved the featherwing beetles. In need of taxonomic revision. I wouldn't hazard at a species name. From young boreal mixedwood forest (Aspen/Spruce).
