I have not been able to ID this little guy. I've looked on various sites and books.

  Yeah, it resembles a Capsid but all the Capsid I've seen feed on plants, this is clearly feeding on another insect. Posted 11 years ago

  Ferdy can we Title the ID with its common name? "Black Kneed Capsid" or have it in the description of the ID at least :). Posted 11 years ago, modified 11 years ago

Looks as though its a black kneed capsid (Blepharidopterus angulatus) ^_^ they feed on red mites mostly but other insects as well. Its a dead ringer for it yay! Posted 11 years ago, modified 11 years ago
