I can't give you a further ID...
But I absolutely love this picture. I'm looking at your website too and man these are fantastic.

I'm coordinator for an outreach program here at the University of Wisconsin called Insect Ambassadors (http://labs.russell.wisc.edu/insectambassadors/) and I would love to use some of your images for updating our powerpoint presentation. Could you email me at insectambassadors@gmail.com? Maybe we could chat about it, or if you don't want me using them that's cool too, I just know the kids would love to see these awesome closeups!
