This creature is exquisite! I have no idea what species it is, or even family or genus, but I'm going to try to find out. Any suggestions on where to look are most welcome. I will cross-post in the Entomology Facebook community. This little one was feeding on Frogfruit (Phyla nodiflora) for quite a while. 93F, mostly sunny, very breezy, humid.
