Yesterday at Zaragoza, Aragon, Spain. 200 meters high. Continental-Mediterranean climate. Habitat: in the wall of my house. Urban zone, with street trees (Gleditsia, Ligustrum, Robinia) and my garden is near. Size: very small, about 1'5-2 mm long. At first look I thinked in a Geocoris but smaller. I taked it and saw a giant scutellum covering more than half if the body. There are a family of flies with these descomunal scutellums, but the antennae make me think that i't an hymenoptera. What species can be? As you can see, i't blue-steel. Thanks |
