Walkingstickspine needle looking insect
Okay, I’m stumped. Can you identify this most awesome example of evolution? This was on my screen one morning in southern New Hampshire. It is the exact size and shape of a couple of pine needles crossed. Cheers,
Dan
Hi Dan,
This master of mimicry is a Northern Walkingstick, Diapheromera femorata.
