Synchlora aerata
Columbia, Boone County, Missouri, USA
September 23, 2007
Size: about 3/4 inch
Trying to ID this... Shot is posed... Caught it last night and thought it was a pale Beauty until I noticed that it was distinctively green... best match I could find was a bl*ackberry loop*er... Thanks for any help! Also... Is this a female due to the lack of fuzzy antennae or is that how it is for both sexes? THanks.

Agree
The PM line indicates Synchlora aerata, and distinguishes this from S.frondaria.
