urbpanTwo years ago I made a post about a brown lacewing I found in my yard. Earlier today I got a notification from bugguide.net about it. I assumed the message was going to be that the image was substandard and was being discarded (I've received a number of those messages).
Instead it turns out that the animal had been identified to species and the image moved to the proper page: Hemerobius stigma. Hemerobius translates to "day-living" (diurnal) and stigma would refer to a spot or markings on the insect somewhere. The species is "widespread in North America," and "often associated with conifers."
