This little character invaded my house and scared my grands half to death before I could explain what it was. Like the vast majority of folks around here they have an almost psychotic dislike of all insects and snakes despite living in the perfect enviroment for such. I'm from the city and insects have fascinated me since childhood. Go figure. Anyways, I have looked all over the Guide and even consulted a coupla books I have and still can't come up with anything on this. Luckily, he decided to show off a bit for me and allowed me to hold him for the close-up of the pronotal area showing the mites he was carrying around and get a decent facial as well as showing off his antennae. Sucker still tried to bite me, though...
Edit: The "feet" or pads on this fella are a bit strange, are they not? I have never seen any like it on longhorns before...
