At light. Massachusetts, USA September 6, 2010. I think these are Erioptera. Lines in first picture are 1/4 inch (~6 mm) apart.  (Click for large size or view on Flickr.)    (Click for large size or view on Flickr.) Edited by John Carr on 22-11-2011 01:10 |

Thanks. I found a regional key and these must be Erioptera septemtrionis. The brown blur under segment 5(+/-) of the abdomen of the female was IDed for me as a mite of genus Cheiroseius. It is visible also as a few legs sticking out in the first picture. |
