These are a couple of the new bugs that we have found here. I have never seen them before and thought they were interesting. The top one is a Green Lynx Spider. We found him sitting on this wasp nest waiting for his next meal. The Green Lynx Spider has a bright translucent green body with rows of small red spots and a red patch between the eyes. It has long thin legs, with rows of black spines. Green Lynx spiders are mostly plant dwellers, and bites occur as the person walks through the foliage. This bite is extremely painful.
This one is what McKay calls a cave cricket. I am not sure if it is or not but it looks pretty prehistoric to me.
