Very cool looking bug Carol. Neat looking saw blade mouth! I think if I had one crawling on me, he'd get a good fling :-). Neat capture! Don

YOu are so right about him looking like he has a chain saw..That is exactly what I thought when I first viewed and before reading your comments. Anyhow, good job. I don't believe I have ever seen one of these bugs.
