emilyhartsbioDescripción
This is a six legged insect with small wings and two antennae. This insect is also bright red. Based off the conditions in which it was found, it is hard to know if this insect is involved in any symbiotic relationships, or what it's predators are. Most insects eat producers, but it is possible that this insect also eats smaller bugs. It's bright red color could indicate that it is not attempting to camouflage and could instead be signaling to predators that it is poisonous. This insect is about 0.5 inches long.
