  1. Hard to see against the leaf, this elevated, slender shieldbug is a Box Bug (Gonocerus acuteangulatus).

    This is another recent arrival in the UK.

    A little above freezing but the bright sunshine resulted in some basking.

    This was the star of the day.

  12. Hot today and insects were scurrying to the underside of leaves when I appeared. I wasn't able to get many photos but there were several confirmations that species are resident, not just stopping off for a break.

    Although not exciting, this Green Shieldbug (Palomena prasina) is always happy to bask on a leaf.

  13. A very pretty insect today. Hairy Shieldbug (Dolycoris baccharum).

  14. Nymphs (3rd and 4th instar) of the southern green shield bug (#Nezara viridula).

    Originally from the tropics and subtropics, this now cosmopolitan #shieldbug arrived in Germany in 1979 and has become firmly established in the south-west of the country. Due to the very warm weather in recent years, the population has increased considerably.
