BG1171 D1387 - Castianeira - Female
Gloster, Gloster arboretum, Amite County, Mississippi, USA
August 31, 2007
Size: body length 8.0 mm.
Very fast! Found on ground. This is an excellent match for Castianeira_longipalpa as shown in this photo. All photos were taken using a Canon MT-24EX Twin-flash with a styrofoam bowl diffuser and autoexposure at 1/250 second shutter speed.
Proper placement would be appreciated.

I snooze I loose
BooHoo :-( I followed one of these guys around for 15 minutes, and shot over a 100 photos I think are the same species. Unfortunately my point-and-shoot images don't look so hot anymore. I should have posted sooner, Waaaa!
Really nice shots, love them!!!!
Mine seems a little different though, probably just species variation.
