A Superb Ant-eater Spider, Euryopis umbilicata seen guarding her egg sac after the flake of bark protecting them fell off. These small spiders prey on sugar ants that travel up and down the tree trunks seeking sugary secretions from insects in the canopy.

A Common Shining Cockroach, Drymaplaneta communis, a harmless native species that feeds on organic matter. A distinguishing feature is the lack of flattening in the hind tibia, seen in two similar species, semivitta and variegata.

Suhpalacsa flavipes is a member of the family Ascalaphidae, order Neuroptera, and this individual is just the second to come in to the moth light in over a decade of mothing. Adults are aerial predators similar to dragonflies which they resemble, but may be distinguished by their long clubbed antennae. The larvae are ground dwellers similar to antlion larvae, but don’t dig the conical pits. They conceal themselves in litter or vegetation and ambush their prey, seizing it in their large mandibles.
