    Maybe something in Miridae, like Lopus decolor? Posted 3 years ago

      Not sure why some have those pale eyes. Could be a sign of a new molt, like you suggested.       Posted 3 years ago

      that certainly looks to be it - it's an import from Europe, so not a lot of similar species to have to compare to here. The British guide calls out the two spots on the head. Posted 3 years ago
