Moved from Gasteruption.
Please see Dave Smith's remarks for a more detailed explanation of these two similar species.

Gasteruptiidae
Tom-

This is a gasteruptiid, though I can't guess the genus off the top of my head. It might be discernable from the pic, though. There are already a few pictures of the genus Gasteruption in the guide. A neat beast, and one I just recently collected and identified here in Kansas.

cheers,

Gasteruptiidae
It's a little embarassing, but when I moved this pic to the Gasteruptiidae page, I already have one there. I just can't keep track of all my pictures.
