Field Notes

Description:

Mating plant bugs. The female is larger like most arthropods. This female is more red in color than the male which is more brown. I don't know if this is true for all of this species or just happened to be this way with this pair.

Habitat:

Bahiopsis laciniata flower in native garden.
