Please unlink images.

Eric - Thanks!
I think I have sorted out how to link back and forth between two different species that are related by context. If not let me know the correct procedure.

This is the correct procedure
But if you prefer, there is an even better way; use [thumb:#], in this case # would be 252208. When you add it to your other image this one shows as a thumb.
There is a lot to learn at Bugguide, don't you think?

Beatriz You Are So Right!
BugGuide is an endless source of learning. So many bugs . . .so little time.

Great videos
I noticed a broken link to videos recently but I don't remember in what page. It must have been yours. Why don't you put the link also on your account page?

I'm going to have to give up my day job!
