Moved from Myzinum.

A very good question. :)

I'd forgotten that we have a few C. octomaculata in the Guide that look like this. I think it's safer to let the experts place this one. Nice catch!

Could this be
Colpa octomaculata?? Just throwing it out there.

Thanks for cropping. I suspect M. obscurum, but I'll let the experts make that call. :)

Please crop your pics...
...so the bug fills the frame, as requested on the submission form. Only you and the editors/experts have the ability to click on the photo and see the full size image. Everyone else is left looking at a little bug in a lot of unnecessary background. :)

You can click on "edit" under any photo and simply upload a cropped version. It will replace the current image.

Thanks!

Images cropped
Sorry about that! I have cropped both pictures in this ID request as instructed. I appreciate your site, and use it to view "official" photos of insects quite often. Thanks for what you do!
