    lol, especially that one leg inconveniently pointing to the sky reminds me of twister as well. Posted 11 years ago

    I have removed the ID on these as they are not Pandurus (the South African varaint of that species looks quite different from the Mediterranean version!). Will try to ID later. Do you maybe have a clearer dorsal image of one of these bugs? Posted 9 years ago

      Thank you! As you can tell my knowledge of insects is pretty much zilch so your input is much appreciated. Unfortunately I do not have any other shots. Posted 9 years ago
