Cyrtopogon
Looks like another NE Cyrt Tom. Nice markings, looks different from the one you had in Vermont. Remember you guys probably have about seven species up there. Mike may know the species.

Thanks Herschel
I thought this was the genus, but wanted to make sure.

Cyrt
Still come back to this striking species. It is not bimaculus, falto, lutatius, marginalis or laphriformis. I don't have descriptions of alleni and lyratus which are also NH species.

Herschel
You're getting this narrowed down pretty good to just 2 suspects. Plus now I know the names of all 7 Cyrt species up here:-)
