Arenivaga looks solid. Same as this sand roach, maybe?

Sand roach seems right ..
but we'll see what the experts say.

Saw this around 9:30pm - had you and Iszak left by then? Great that y'all were there to document some of the bugs. Often with a public program like this I don't get to photograph the bugs till later.

We left at 9:27; I'd checked my clock.
It's nearly impossible to lead, shoot, and do both right. Hats off for your restraint! I think I have a couple more to post, from Iszak's batch. Thanks again for hosting!
