    I don't know what it's called, but it's left antenna is a bit wonky :D

    Great detail and color in those eyes.

    Nice eyes. It looks vaguely--but only vaguely--like the mayflies we get in the northeast. Maybe something related to them?

    It is a lacewing, Family Chrysopidae - the adult form of the antlion. I don't know which species...ne_nau.gif

    Good ones- these have lovely eyes- as commented above a lacewing - not an ant-lion adult but a closely related family.

    That's right - 'aphid-lion' should be the word.
