Liturgusa maya - Female
Long Key Nature Center, Davie, Broward County, Florida, USA
August 7, 2021
After visiting Long Key multiple times in the past and not finding this species, I finally was able to see them in the wild. Several adults and nymphs along the wooden railings on the equestrian trail, most noticeable at night.
