Was stuck on the shirt for a good amount of time before flying off. It was very calm and did not mind us.

After seeing and thinking about it, this image does not show up well in the guide and will not be helpful for identification of other specimens.

We gladly ID these, but we cannot leave them in the guide where there are already many images.
This image isn't needed for the Guide, but it will be visible here for 30 days until removed by the system.
Another editor may review this decision and decide to return the image to the guide.

Please review the HELP TAB and information at top of "Submit Image/Upload Page". Please try to crop your image(s) so the bug fills the frame. 560 pixels on the longest side is preferred. In other words, try to make the image 560 pixels at least with a good quality image filling most of the frame. If you can't do that, that is OK. We will still ID the images for you, but may not be able to keep them in the guide.

Thanks.

Probably a male.

I am going to unlink and frass the second photo. That head on view
will not be very helpful in the guide.

The guide already has over 400 photos of this species, including over 30 from Arkansas.

Moved from ID Request.
