Pair of Insects - Anisomorpha ferruginea - Male Female
Slickrock Creek Wilderness trail, just over the TN/NC border, Graham County, North Carolina, USA
October 24, 2011
Size: Male: 1.5" / Female 4"
Found these 2 in a rather private moment on a tree while out for a hike. They were in full sun and she appears to have a distinctive hard "shell". NEVER seen anything like her especially (would mistake him for any number of random "bugs") and would love to know what they are!
