![Tasmanian Brown Lacewing - Micromus tasmaniae Attracted to UV light. No more then 10 mm in length.<br />
<br />
Adults of the species are 7.5-10 mm long, and are typically nocturnal. The lacewing's lifespan is temperature dependent (higher temperatures causing shorter larval stages).[1] The Tasmanian Brown Lacewing breeds all year round, surviving at temperatures as low as 5°C.[1] The species typically has clear wings and a brown body.[4] The species can be differentiated from Micromus bifasciatus by the spotted pattern on the species' anterior wings, compared to the brown transverse bands found on Micromus bifasciatus.[4] (Wikipedia) Australia,Eamw lacewings,Encounter Bay SA,Geotagged,Micromus tasmaniae,Summer,Tasmanian Brown Lacewing,UVL](https://s3.amazonaws.com/media.jungledragon.com/images/3125/157190_medium.jpeg?AWSAccessKeyId=05GMT0V3GWVNE7GGM1R2&Expires=1759968010&Signature=XJSMoOAh%2BxRJU84vnLrcNEbC4fM%3D)
