| | | Re: Insects for id. Just guessing really, but the first one looks a bit like a female Notostira elongata in her green 'summer dress'.
The second appears to look like a Capsid and possibly a fresh rather pale Common Green Capsid (Lygocoris pabulinus) although the Potato Capsid is rather similar.
But best wait for an expert on these families. |

| | | Re: Insects for id. Evening Graham,
The first is a Non-biting Midge, Chironomidae and likely in the sub-family Chironominae. I can't really help with the bug - these green ones are very confusing!
Take care, Jason |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
