Female broad-tipped conehead? Front view - Neoconocephalus triops - Female
Beverly Hills, Citrus County, Florida, USA
August 21, 2007
Size: w/o wings/ovip, apx 45mm
I spent some quality time with this one between 4:30 and 5 PM. She seemed to have a bum leg and was hopping in the local strip mall parking lot. I coaxed her onto my hand. After our photo shoot I had trouble convincing her to move onto foliage and finally succeeded after walking to a local pond, with her hanging tight to my finger.
