Fishfly

Chaulioides (genus)

Description:

Almost 3 inches long. Some had comb-like antennae (like male Luna moths), others had simple antennae. Perhaps this is an indication of sexual dimorphism?

Habitat:

on siding at/under lights on tiny public building (pair of restrooms) on Dismal Swamp Canal trail.

Notes:

20-30 of these spread out on siding.
