I have been checking around
and it is possible that this is T. ignitus. It is very dark so would need to see the private parts to be sure.

This is one you should
definitely keep and send off for determination. Have not seen anything like that. Get as many as you can to be sure you have a male and female.

I'll keep looking in NJ, too.
