Field Notes

Description:

A trash bug which I understand to be the larval stage of a lacewing. The debris piled on top of the insect is often the remains of it's prey. Though may be difficult to see in the third picture, it has 4 finger like projections at the end of it's legs.

Habitat:

Mixed woods
