Common along the railroad tracks that follow the Susquehanna from Shenks Ferry to Safe Harbor. Appreciate confirmation of species. Didn't get a glimpse of the red abdomen in any of my pictures so not 100% sure.

Date approximate, found back in 2006. Here's an excerpt from the "report" I wrote up when I found this flower:
"A few months ago my dad and I went to the Nottingham Serpentine Barrens which are near our house to look for interesting plants like the Round-Leaved Fameflower. This flower first appeared after the last Ice Age.
When we went to the Barrens I was all exited when I was the first to find the Round-Leaved Fameflower and Small’s Ragwort. The Fameflower leaves are at its base and look like stretched green eggs. It blooms from June to September and opens in the afternoon. I like the Fameflower because of its leaves and that it can only be found in serpentine barrens."

On Sorghastrum nutans in 30-yr old prairie restoration. Dead. Seems infested with fungus. ID uncertain, based on facial pattern.

Very mine-like at least. I don’t quite see frass, but maybe signs of surface emergence and surface feeding nearby as well? Peltigera lichen: http://www.inaturalist.org/observations/91745514

On Carduus acanthoides. I don’t think I saw any evidence of stem mining, just full leaves mined and dead.

Wasn’t sure where to start with this one. A moth perhaps?

Exceedingly small. Found on a horseweed. A miner found a few horseweeds over. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/85598215

Foliicolous on toyon. There is an abundance of H. leucomelos corticolous on the branches of this tree. Based on that and morphology this is my best guess, however I haven’t found any reference to this species as foliicolous.

In a vernal pool. Thought they could have been bryozoans until taking a closer look.
