Myrmeleon sp.
Thin stick-like abdomen reminded me of a damselfly, but the transparent wings enclosed and extended beyond the body. Large eyes.
It rested almost invisible against the stem of Veronia cinerea...and did not move or try to evade me as I photographed it.
Thanks to Davidbygott I know it is Family Myrmeleontidae

Davidbygott, Thanks so much. I was wondering what it was!
It's an adult ant-lion (family Myrmeleontidae)
