Field Notes

Description:

Has four clear wings with black and yellow markings. Abdomen was black with yellow markings. Antenna looks like ones you would find on a moth.

Habitat:

Found on my front porch at night. I think it was attracted to the porch light and other insects that were out. Rural wooded area.

Notes:

Any help with identification would be great!

Thanks skinheaddave! I think I put the correct scientific name with it.

It looks to me like C.rastricornis but you may have an easier time identifying it if you have some other pictures of some details etc.
