21/07/2011, Louette Saint-Denis (Wallonia, Belgium). On
Anthriscus sylvestris. Based on the colour, it looks like
Pyrrhocoris apterus or
Corizus hyoscyami, but shape and pattern don't match. A teneral one? Or something completely different? Thanks in advance!

Actually, I think the pattern fits
dominulus better. I believe that one of the distinguishing characters is that the exocorium (the outermost strip of the forewing) of
dominulus does not have a black spot, whereas that of
ornata does. Also
dominulus is a smaller species, and the size, judging from the
Pastinaca? (not
Anthriscus) seeds, looks to be better for
dominulus.
It would be good to hear from someone who is more familiar with the species! :)
