This was found at Scatsta Airport a couple of weeks ago, can't remember the size...anyone got any ideas on it. Looks kinda Sphaero to me?? Roger Thomason attached the following image: ![]() [119.1Kb] Edited by Roger Thomason on 05-07-2010 23:14 |

I can't see a hook on the hind tarsus, so might be Lotophila atra. If you want to relax them, put them in a vial on damp cotton wool for a few hours; |
