Hi again, Photographed in May of this year, in southern Spain, arid area but with a lot of fruit plantations around. About 5mm in size. I'm guessing it belongs to the Reduviidae. Am I wrong again?  Is it possible to get to species with this only photo of it? Ratatoskr attached the following image:  [150.31Kb] Belief is not an idea that the mind possesses but an idea that possesses the mind. |

The curved proboscis is diagnostic for Reduviidae. |

Coranus sp., a difficult genus (for me). With long wings, pattern on abdominal underside and shape of the scutellum mostly possible Coraneus griseus. Frank Edited by Frank Marquard on 17-11-2014 16:01 |

Wow, glad I'm back again or else I would have missed ID correction. Thank you Frank, Graeme and cthirion. Quite precise ID Maybe even species name. Impressive. Here is the photo in final edit. https://500px.com/photo/89846079/damsel-bug-climbing-over-a-grain-of-sand-by-mats-carnmarker?from=user_library Edited by Ratatoskr on 13-12-2014 00:04 Belief is not an idea that the mind possesses but an idea that possesses the mind. |
