Condylostylus pilicornis?? - Condylostylus

Condylostylus pilicornis?? - Condylostylus
Aromas, San Benito County, California, USA
August 17, 2007
Size: about 4mm
I went back this morning & netted a specimen & cooled its heels in the frig for a few minutes and then photographed it using my 55mm micro Nikkor reversed on bellows on a copy stand. Significantly less frustrating than trying to photograph it on the loose. It flew off before I was finished, but deserved its freedom after its performance.
