Sehirus
luctuosus  |
||
| A common group of insects are Shieldbugs, named after their heraldic shield-like shape and belonging to the order Hemiptera. They frequent most types of vegetation and although most feed on their foliage and berries etc, some species are carnivorous. Shieldbugs go through several stages of growth called nymphs, which are as frequently found as the adults and a few species exhibit brood care. Shieldbugs are also fairly regular visitors to MV moth traps. Sehirus luctuosus is a ground living species. The one pictured was found at Warsop Main Pit Top (top left) on Field Forget-me-not Myosotis arvensis on 20/05/07 . | ||
