state not selected
indicated size unrealistic, too
unless you have an accurate measurement in mm, the size field is best left blank: estimates are useless for identification purposes, and more often mislead than help

It was approx one inch in length
Why is that unrealistic? I am estimating the body only not the antennae.

Also, my apologies on the state not being selected. I fixed that error.

unrealistic because in this sp. body is 6-11 mm long
way under half the indicated size
