The numerous all black beetles are believed to be Oiceoptoma inaequale - the Ridged Carrion Beetle.
The sole beetle (lower right) with red-margined thorax is Oiceoptoma noveboracense - the Margined Carrion Beetle.
Red 'dots' seen on several of the beetles are mites.
Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Silphinae: Oiceoptoma inaequale, O. noveboracense
