Tree Frogs

These little frogs were on some leaves and grasses on a warm summer day.  You would only see them in the shade.  They are about 20mm long (size of a quarter)

Margined Blister Beetles

Epicauta Funebris in the Meloidae family of beetles.  We saw a whole bunch of these devouring a plant at the Dutch Gap Conservation Area.

Net-winged beetles (Lycidae)

These two are either Calopteron recitulatum or Calopteron discrepans. Found at Rockwood Park in June 2015.

Stinkbug 2.0 (Pentatomidae)

A stinkbug at Bryan Park on the same day we saw that other stinkbug at Bryan Park. I wanted to ID it, but brown stinkbugs are no fun to ID because there's tons of them and they all just look like brown stinkbugs.

Flower

A white flower of unknown origin. I think it belongs to that triplet of leaves right next to it, not to the wild grape growing directly behind it or the monocot in front of it. Maybe Fragaria sp.?

Sootywing skipper (Hesperiidae)

A Pholisora catullus on an unusual background in Chesterfield County in June 2015. That antenna shape is called "recurved hook." Check out those recurved hooks!

Nodding flowers

Flowers with too many stamens at Rockwood Park in May 2015. They're really hard to ID because I didn't get a good enough picture of the leaves.

Agreeable Tiger Moth caterpillar (Erebidae)

A Spilosoma congrua caterpillar at Robious Landing Park in June 2015.

White inflorescence

A bunch of white flowers at Rockwood Park in May 2015. Not sure about the ID!

Bee Assassin on Mint (Reduviidae)

Bees like mint flowers, and she knows it. This is Apiomerus crassipes on spearmint in Chesterfield County in August 2015. Take a closer look at that beak!
