It looks like we might be down to six of them, currently, with the hardy but infrequent little Hardboiled perhaps cracked by editor/publisher Gary Lovisi's losses in the NYC-area flooding...with a few that have crime fiction as a secondary or partial focus, such as Cemetery Dance or Witness...and one other which is devoted to hybrid sf/crime fiction...
B.V. Lawson notes in comments that the following little magazines, emphasizing horror like Cemetery Dance, have enough suspense and other cf content to be worth mentioning in this context:
Shock Totem
Bete Noire
Shroud
and the folding Pear Noir!
...and, among the eclectic littles, the next most cf-laden that come to my mind are
Boulevard
and Manoa (multiple Best American Mystery Stories citation source) (across campus from the magazine I briefly edited, Hawaii Review).

| Current issue...a little sf/cf hybrid. |

| Curent issue. More than any other recent cf magazine, The Strand makes nearly every issue look too much like every other issue, at least in terms of covers. |

| The current, annual humor, issue. |

| The current isssue. I don't know why their covers are so bland of late. |

| Unclear if HB is still in business... |
