green lacewing with yellow head - Yumachrysa unidentified-sp-texas
Austin, Ladybird Johnson Wildflower Center, Travis County, Texas, USA
April 4, 2013
Size: about 15 mm
Very long, all black antennae (cropped off in photo). I cannot seem to place this to a genus, even after studying the wing venation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Moved from Apache Lacewing.

There are numerous discrepancies from Y. apache as it's defined in the literature - the lack of a dark band on the hind femora, the presence of light longitudinal veins in collected specimens, and a much greener body color than reported in live specimens.

Ceraeochrysa
This appears to be the same species found in Guadalupe and Edwards counties. The Penny, Adams, & Stange (1997) Catalogue only records C. lineaticornis (which this is not) and C. valida for Texas. The latter has more sinuous veins than what I'm seeing here and has been split into Kymachrysa.
