Submitted by: John LeBlanc
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: About 1/2" long feeding on Polk Salad. I was told that if a submission has not been identified in 4-6 months it is pretty much orphaned. Submission is almost 6 years old I figured why bother identifying it at this point. But, if you want to id it please go ahead.
