Eastern Blood-sucking Conenose - Triatoma sanguisuga
Sand Springs, Osage County, Oklahoma, USA
April 21, 2007
Size: 1/2"
Assassin Bug ?
The pic has a yellow hue. This is due to me trying to help and ending up making it worse. It was night time so I thought I would put a flashlight on it to help with lighting....didn't like how it turned out. Might have been OK if it were a brighter light, like a spotlight or something.
