Field Notes

Description:

Green bug with red antennae and tarsi, translucent wings at the end of the abdomen.

Habitat:

Field

Notes:

The first image is simply a cropped picture of the second to better make out the details of the insect. As far as I can tell, this is the correct ID, though I plan to return to the specimen for a closer look to double-check the ID. This is an introduced species from Europe. Found at Barbara A. Beiser Field Station.
