A NEW BUG QUERY FROM CONNECTICUT, followup (8-25-05)
Hello,
I don’t know what category to check and, therefore, can not find your ID of my "armored tank" bug. Do you have a special "New Q & A" page? Thanks.

Hello Bugman!
Today I discovered this critter, lurking on a phlox leaf, in a Connecticut garden. He wasn’t skittish and flew, a short distance, only after I disturbed his leafy perch. Thanks.

Hi Susan,
It is impossible to answer every letter, and your letter was not answered originally. Today we are happy to identify your Leaf Footed Bug in the genus Acanthocephala.
