Phytocoris infuscatus

At a 365 + 395nm UV light setup at a mixed forest edge.

I think it needs to be named the "Valentine Plant Bug". Yet another rare plant bug at my lights this weekend.

        I saw it but was going through so many new posts that I didn't pay enough attention and figured you based it on just the overall red color, completely missing the heart shape.

        So yes, excellent name :)         Posted 4 years ago
