found it in Western North America, in Calabasas, California. Any ideas? common black ground beetle? ...it was in the grassland between two oak woodlands

This is not a beetle, but a nymph of a plant bug in the family Miridae. There are species in several genera that can have this general appearance, and some of those can jump like flea beetles.
