This wicked looking bug was climbing on one of my caterpillar cages this morning. I think it's a wheelbug, but it looks more like a saw than a wheel on its back! :)

What an interesting article! I figured it would have loved to get into the cage, but then that's why I have the cages - to keep predators from killing my butterfly and sometimes moth caterpillars. I politely moved him/her off the cage! Sherry
lol! I vividly remember that our prof said something about 'double extra credit' if any of us entomology students had a wheel bug in our mandatory insect collection. One of my best friends had the opportunity to take him up on that, and I KNOW that he (my friend) will probably vouch for that assessment.
