Some friends I found, ID optional. I simply wish to share
(Finger for scale on the centipede)
big female Scutigera coleoptrata,
Enchenopa binotata group (not sure what it’s eating, but there’s no names yet for the different undescribed species that specialize on different foods),
and a juvenile Oncometopia, probably orbona.

I found myself pretty distracted by leaf and treehoppers this summer. My favorite might be the broad-headed sharpshooter (Oncometopia orbona). #insectsofinstagram #arthropodsanonymous #cicadellidae #insectagram #sharpshooter #Oncometopia #bugs #critters #nature #biodiversitt #ecology #illinois #grassland #midwest #prairie #prairierestoration #insect_macro #entomology #naturephotography #insectsofig

A few days ago we visited our field site to do some cleanup and preparation for summer experiments. We found these guys on our kudzu plants - called the broad headed sharpshooter, the scientific name is Oncometopia orbona. The bright white spots on the wings of these individuals are telling - they are madde of a waxy substance and will cover the eggs that these adult females are about to lay.
