  1. Hi Rui, it's the last (5th) stadium - I'll correct in the description :o) Posted 6 years ago
    1. Thank you! I was in doubt due to relative size of the wing length. thanks so much* Posted 6 years ago
      1. Yes - the wing casings seem to be relatively short on this species, but the fully developed wings are also a bit on the short side.
        Here is the 4th stadium: https://waarneming.nl/fotonew/4/17584574.jpg

Beosus maritimus is a bug from the family Rhyparochromidae. The bugs become 6.1 to 7.5 millimeters long. They have conspicuous white spots on the cuneus of the hemielytra and two parallel pale spots on the otherwise dark sign (Scutellum). The front of the pronotum is narrower than the head with facet eyes. The tips of the legs (femora) of the middle and posterior legs are broadly colored black. The fourth sensing member is basal pale colored.
