  Hi Lisa, thanks (also for the help in IDing :o) - just worked through some old images of Acanthosomatidae and figured I'd upload a few more examples of colours and dev. stages ... Posted 6 years ago

      No, no ... not sorry ... never sorry! ... putting all the ID and tags on is repetitive and tedious so any help is always appreciated :o))
      I'm afraid I've overloaded a bit now, but at least made you happy I hope ;o) Posted 6 years ago

The Birch shieldbug

The birch shieldbug is species of shield bug in the Acanthosomatidae family. It is widely distributed across Europe. The species overwinters in an adult stage, after which they emerge in the spring and start to mate. Their larvae feed usually on birch, but could also be found on aspen and hazel.
