Joshua is certainly right. Maybe Geina sp.? Not sure! I cannot see all the details like the colors of the legs ant body markings, which would be important for an ID down to genus/species level. Can you make large and "sharp" crop? http://bugguide.net/node/view/20962/bgpage http://bugguide.net/node/view/4561/bgpage
