Mezira sayi - Male
College Station, Brazos County, Texas, USA
April 10, 2015
Size: 5.5 mm
Malaise trap in Lick Creek Park, 31.iii-21.iv
ID is mine; one of the small spp. (another small one in c.TX is granulata, that has longer, more prominent dorsal vestiture; they are pretty easy to tell apart)
by far the most common Mezira around here, i've seen hundreds -- it's weird how few pics of it we have in the guide
