Reading your post again, where you say they do have clubbed antennae, I suggest you take a deeper look inside the hive to see if you can find any larvae. There are a lot of good photos on Google if you search for small hive beetle and then click on Images.

Hi Danalion,

Hard to tell from your photo, but they do not appear to be SHB. You can see photos of SHB and their larvae here

Your photo looks like they are longer. Are you able to get a closer photos of them?
