checkered beetle
The Cymatodera aegra-complex comprises a group of checkered beetles in the family Cleridae, subfamily Tillinae. These beetles are known from the southwestern United States and northern Mexico, where they have been collected in association with desert thorn-scrub vegetation. Members of this complex are morphologically similar and may represent a cryptic species assemblage requiring further taxonomic study.
Diceroprocta bequaerti
Gulf Saltmarsh Cicada
Diceroprocta bequaerti is a species of annual cicada in the family Cicadidae, native to North America. It is one of several Diceroprocta species found in the southern United States, where it inhabits coastal and near-coastal environments. Like other cicadas in this genus, it produces sound through tymbal organs to attract mates. The species was described by William T. Davis in 1917.
Leptophyes punctatissima
Speckled Bush-cricket
Leptophyes punctatissima, commonly known as the Speckled Bush-cricket, is a flightless bush-cricket species distributed across most of Europe. It belongs to the subfamily Phaneropterinae and exhibits distinctive acoustic behavior where both sexes stridulate. Males produce calling songs to which females respond with brief chirps, creating a duetting communication system. The species has been studied extensively for its auditory physiology and directional hearing capabilities.
Meganola phylla
Coastal Plain Meganola Moth
A small moth in the family Nolidae with a wingspan of 18–24 mm. Adults are active from January through October, with peak activity between April and August. Larvae feed on Quercus (oak) species. Previously treated as a subspecies or color variant of Meganola minuscula.
Microchrysa flavicornis

Microchrysa flavicornis is a small European soldier fly in the family Stratiomyidae, commonly known as the green gem. Adults are active during summer months and are associated with woodland edges and hedgerows. The species exhibits sexual dimorphism in coloration, with females displaying metallic green on the abdomen and frons. Larvae have been recorded from dung.
Neotibicen auriferus
Plains Dog-Day Cicada, Field cicada
Neotibicen auriferus is an annual cicada species in the family Cicadidae, commonly known as the Plains Dog-Day Cicada or Field cicada. Like other annual cicadas, it emerges during mid- to late summer rather than in synchronized broods. The species is known from the central United States, with records from Arkansas, Colorado, Kansas, Mississippi, Missouri, and Oklahoma. Males produce species-specific songs using tymbal organs to attract females for mating.
Neotibicen canicularis
dog-day cicada, dog-day harvestfly, heatbug, Northern Dog-day Cicada
Neotibicen canicularis is an annual cicada species found across much of North America, commonly known as the dog-day cicada or dog-day harvestfly. Unlike periodical cicadas that emerge in synchronized broods every 13 or 17 years, this species appears every summer, though individuals require several years to develop underground. Adults are active during the hot midsummer period traditionally called the "dog days." The species has been documented as a host for multiple flesh fly parasitoids in the family Sarcophagidae, including several first-record associations.

Coastal scissor grinder cicada
Neotibicen latifasciatus is an annual cicada species in the genus Neotibicen, commonly known as the coastal scissor grinder cicada. It was originally described by Davis in 1915 as a variety of Cicada pruinosa. The species is part of the 'scissor grinder' group of cicadas, which produce distinctive buzzing calls. As an annual cicada, it emerges every year rather than in synchronized broods like periodical cicadas.
Neotibicen lyricen
lyric cicada
Neotibicen lyricen, commonly known as the lyric cicada, is a medium-sized cicada species in the family Cicadidae. It is one of several species in the genus Neotibicen that occur across eastern North America. The species is characterized by its distinctive song, which has been described as a continuous, high-pitched trill. Adults emerge in summer and are active during daylight hours when they produce their characteristic calling songs from perches in trees and shrubs.
Neotibicen lyricen engelhardti
Dark Lyric Cicada
Neotibicen lyricen engelhardti is a subspecies of the lyric cicada, commonly known as the Dark Lyric Cicada. It is one of several annual cicada subspecies found in eastern North America that emerge during mid- to late summer. Like other Neotibicen species, it produces species-specific songs using tymbal organs. The subspecies was described by Davis in 1910 and is currently recognized as valid.
Neotibicen superbus
Superb Dog-day Cicada, Superb Cicada
Neotibicen superbus, the superb dog-day cicada, is a distinctive cicada species in the family Cicadidae. It is noted for being the greenest species in its genus, with reduced black patterning compared to congeners. The species produces a soft buzz song that reaches a crescendo. It is primarily associated with grassland environments and dolomite glades in the south-central United States.
Plagodis phlogosaria
scorched wing, straight-lined plagodis, Straight-lined Plagodis Moth
Plagodis phlogosaria is a geometrid moth widely distributed across North America. Adults have a wingspan of 28–38 mm and are active from April to August. Larvae feed on the foliage of several deciduous trees and shrubs. The species is recognized by six described subspecies with varying geographic ranges.
Polistes dominula
European Paper Wasp
Polistes dominula is a highly successful invasive social wasp native to Eurasia that has established populations across North America, South America, New Zealand, South Africa, and other regions. First detected in North America near Boston in 1978, it has become one of the most abundant wasps on the continent. The species builds small, exposed paper nests in protected locations and preys primarily on live insects, particularly caterpillars. Unlike yellowjackets, it does not scavenge for meat or sugar. Its rapid spread has been attributed to ecological flexibility, superior competitive ability, and tolerance of human-altered environments.

kelp crabs
Pugettia is a genus of marine kelp crabs in the family Epialtidae, distributed across the North Pacific from North America to East Asia. Species inhabit shallow subtidal zones, primarily associated with macroalgal habitats including kelp beds, Sargassum stands, and red algal turfs. Many species exhibit ontogenetic habitat shifts, with juveniles and smaller individuals occupying deeper algal turfs while larger adults migrate to shallower macroalgal beds. The genus includes approximately 25 extant species plus one fossil species, with several species serving as important subjects for studies of crab growth, reproduction, and habitat ecology.
