Maybe the genus Paragordius since these are known from crickets. Lou

When we did sticky trapping across the street from you at the Natural History Museum, we found those in the traps fairly often. --John John E. Simmons Museologica 128 E.

Is it something that was secreted by the crickets on the trap or something completely different? Thanks for your help.
