Neoconocephalus nebrascensis
Identification 4
The cone is tall with heavy dark markings along the edges, leaving on a small green triangle at the base of the cone. Like other Neoconocephalus, may be green or brown. In females the ovipositor extends 5-7 mm past the wingtips (Blatchley 1920).

Occurrence 4
The SINA range map shows this species occurring in the southern 3/4 of Iowa. Froeschner (1954) examined only 5 specimens, so it appears it was uncommon.
Habitat 4
Thick vegetation, usually grass, in such places as roadside ditches, prairies, or even corn fields.
