Assassin BugsAssassin Bug (Wheel Bug)
This Assassin Bug (Wheel Bug) landed on my Son-In-Law’s finger while we were sitting in our parked car with the windows open. The location was Ligonier Pennsylvania (about 60 miles east of Pittsburgh — southwest PA). Thank-you for your excellent website which allowed us to learn much more about this interesting "Bug". Apparently we were lucky that the bug did not decide to sting, since the sting can be quite painful as I learned from your web site. Thanks again for all the superb reference information on the Insect World.
