Well, as the title said this is a short-winged insect (possibly an immature) but I don't know what group. Can anyone help? The place is Suriname, tropical forest, 3 August 2016. ID help will be appreciated! Stephen attached the following image:  [127.27Kb] --Stephen Stephen Cresswell www.americaninsects.net |

When I see those 3 abdominal glands I immediately think of hemiptera, but I'm no expert. Maybe some assasinbug, ground assasinbug (Peiratinae) or some nymphal stage?

I think this could be Lygaeidae. Gabor Keresztes Japan Wildlife Gallery Carpathian Basin Wildlife Gallery |

Hello, Xespok wrote: I think this could be Lygaeidae. Too thin antennae for Lygaeidae, I suspect. I would also say, Reduviidae. Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |

I agree with Reduviidae. Too bad it's a nymph rather than an adult. Your invert guide in Suriname. |
