Wow.
Thank you so much, Jeff, for your recent contributions to the camel crickets and cicadas! Most of these I have never seen before.....I wonder if you might want to take a look at some of the unidentified camel cricket images in particular? There are at least two "sand-treader" types that I don't know where to begin to start, and I don't think anyone else has tried to ID them. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can give there.
