Coniatus splendidulus

Coniatus splendidulus
Houston, Harris County, Texas, USA

Not sure if it's been found this far east before. Easternmost BG record is from Midland, TX, which is over 450 mi. away.

Per the info page, it feeds on Tamarix. Interestingly, that same night I had a Tamarix leafhopper (Opsius stactogalus) for the first time in years.
