Stenodema
calcarata (Fallén, 1807)  |
| Stenodema
calcarata is extremely similar to Stenodema
laevigata, but differs in having two distinctive
spurs on the hind femur. Adults over-winter and attain
the green colouration in the Spring months. Stenodema
calcarata is probably a widespread Plant Bug of
grassy sites over much of Nottinghamshire, although not
as frequent as S. laevigata. |
