Aradus cf-snowi
Aradus cf-snowi is a flat bug species in the family Aradidae, a group of true bugs commonly found on and under the bark of dead trees. The 'cf.' designation indicates this specimen resembles A. snowi but requires confirmation. Flat bugs in this genus are typically cryptic and associated with woody substrates.
Barce husseyi
Barce cf-husseyi is an amphipod crustacean in the family Phliantidae. The 'cf.' designation indicates the specimen resembles Barce husseyi but definitive identification requires further verification. Amphipods in this genus are typically marine, benthic organisms associated with hard substrates or sediments.
Draeculacephala cf-minerva
Draeculacephala cf-minerva is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, distinguished by its distinctive head shape and association with grassland and prairie habitats. The 'cf.' designation indicates specimen identification based on morphological similarity to D. minerva, pending definitive confirmation. Members of this genus are known for their wedge-shaped bodies and powerful hind legs adapted for jumping.
Magdalis aenescens
Magdalis cf-aenescens is a small weevil in the tribe Magdalini, recognized by its metallic bronze or coppery coloration. The genus Magdalis comprises bark- and wood-associated weevils with elongated snouts and compact bodies. This species is part of a taxonomically challenging complex where identification often requires examination of genitalia or host associations. Records indicate association with woody plants, though specific host relationships for this species remain incompletely documented.
