    1. Believe that I was quite surprised to spot them.
      This specimens were capture right across my doorstep, I can say that the day before yesterday, this plants were "clean", I even took some shots to adults Spilostethus upon the plants and flying nearby. Today I had a few hours to go outdoors. I was very fortunate to look at it one more time.
