Hanging Thief - Diogmites angustipennis

Hanging Thief - Diogmites angustipennis
Durham County, North Carolina, USA
July 3, 2004
Found at a lighted storefront window in the early morning. It perhaps was attracted to the wounded insects in the area, or was attracted to the light the previous night.

Species identification by Herschel Raney.
