Field Notes

Description:

Over 2 cm big, very common.

Habitat:

It feeds on fruits, olives, kiwi, lemon... I have spotted it in the grass but close to some olive trees so it probably came from there.

E vidiš, znala sam da je nešto poznato i često u ovim krajevima! Sigurno je otpao sa okolnih maslina-hvala :)

ovaj žižak se na hrvatski zove skorovača, štetnik na voću, maslinama, kiviju, limunu...
