There seems to be some confusion
on the correct scientific name for this lovely. Some think the original C. auge is correct. Here at BugGuide we are using the taxonomy from All-Leps which lists this as C.myrodora, so you will find images if it here. We will move a couple of your images to that guide page and a couple to frass. Thanks for posting. Maybe someone who knows more of the taxonomy than we will add some comments.

I didn't know I looked it up on the web and couldn't find much.
