    Stunning! I'm guessing these are only a few mm? Posted 8 years ago

      The adults are roughly 3mm, the larger ones maybe a little more (3,5mm max?) Posted 8 years ago

The Andromeda lace bug

The andromeda lace bug is a pest insect on plants of the genus "Pieris", especially "Pieris japonica", the Japanese andromeda. It originated in Japan with its host plant but has since been introduced to other areas of the globe. At least one "Pieris" species, "Pieris floribunda", is resistant to the bug.
