Description

Subgenital plate seems to indicate this is O. catinata, and not one of the other 2-3 Obolopteryx species that occur here. See entnemdept.ufl.edu and bugguide.net

On edge of oak-juniper woodlands. May be same specimen as first post today. Re-aquired to get closeups of cerci and subgenital plate, used to tentatively ID species. Would be nice if someone agrees or disagrees, since I think there are more here...
