Moved
Moved from Stilt Bugs. Agree with Berytinus minor. I found one of these in southern Kentucky this year. An immigrant from Europe.

Agreed...
about Berytidae, certainly looks like Berytinus minor H.S.

Not an ID
I have no idea, but it is interesting. Antennae remind me of Stilt Bugs (Berytidae), but that doesn't mean much, I'm sure.

Berytidae?
Pretty sure this is a stilt bug of some kind, but will definitely be a new genus and species in the guide. What a strange one:-)
