Hi Bugman!
Just used your site to identify this Elm Sawfly I saw while hiking in the mountains of North Carolina. Thought you might like the photo.
I also was able to identify the cute little Grapevine Beetle that was sadly squished on the grill of my car. Sorry little guy!

Hi Carrie,
We are happy that our site was helpful.  We are posting your two images separately since combining postings with unrelated subjects tends to compromise our already questionable archive organization.  The Elm Sawfly, Cimbex americana, is an impressive creature.
