Tiny beetle

I found this tiny ~ 2mm beetle sitting on this Bulbous Buttercup Ranunculus bulbosus, in the beautiful down land churchyard surrounding North Lancing church.  
North Lancing Church is a real little gem, high up above Lancing near the South Downs, not much from the front where the road runs along the church wall, but round the southern side, away from the road is a beautiful churchyard full of interesting memorials and wild blossom in equal measure.
I know this is a Bulbous buttercup, (a locally common species found on calcareous soils often in old churchyards), because of the highly down turned sepals, under the yellow petals, neatly illustrated by the tiny visitor.
