Moved
Moved from Dicerca. Good call you two. And yes, if we could find a voucher it could be published as a new state record. Josh, get your carcass out there this season and find one!

Looks like Dicerca caudata to
Looks like Dicerca caudata to me. It could represent a new state record for TN also. Please keep this in mind if you happen to come across any additional specimens. I am sure that Ted MacRae and Rick Westcott will agree with me that a specimen will need to be deposited in a well known collection before we could actually publish something like this as a "new record" for TN.
Great spot and a nice photo too!
