Your letter to the bugman: I found this Owlfly on a pumpkin leaf in the early evening. I’ve not seen one before and would like to identity which Owlfly it is.
How you want your letter signed: Katherine
Dear Katherine,
Owlflies belong to the family Ascalaphidae. Your individual resembles this individual posted to iSpot, but it is not identified to the species level.
