I'm having to moderate all comments because Blogger seems to have a problem notifying me. Sorry about that. I will review them several times daily, though, until this issue is fixed.

ReplyDeleteThe closest I can find is Psocus crosbyi, which lives on this coast. I'll see what the BugGuide people say.
