    These bug variations are so hard to tell apart, I'm glad you know how! Posted 11 years ago

      You just need to compare the patterns very carefully, every little spot counts. Posted 11 years ago

      I am not shure what you mean by bubble... Most true bugs have half of their front wings hardened and the other half is soft - that's the brown part of the wings, which is a little bit more illuminated and maybe looks like a bubble to you. Posted 11 years ago
