Holcocephala - Male
Cooter Bog, Kisatchie NF, 5 miles N of Fullerton, LA, Vernon Parish, Louisiana, USA
June 15, 2019
Size: 5.5mm
Counted 8 in a small area of a pitcher plant bog sitting on the tips of long grass stems. Submitting a male and a female. The 1st flagellomere of the antenna look to be spindle shaped. Perhaps the leg shape will help determin H.abdominalis or H.fusca. Thanks for looking.
