Wilcoxia - Male
Dog Canyon, Otero County, New Mexico, USA
December 1, 2010
These must be a Wilcoxia n.sp. There are actually several new spp. known from New Mexico, and this looks like one Greg Forbes found near Las Cruces (though I haven't seen the female of his). from Eric Fisher...in part.

specimens needed
Hi Bob, is it possible for you to collect a few specimens of this Wilcoxia if you should happen to see it in the next few weeks? We are working on this group and Otero would be a new county record for it...thanks!
