Most of the Bucharest's inhabitants know a very few things about the environment around this area. If you wish to know more, you'll learn about it using such a resource or many others available (printed or on web). But I have to say that I like to learn about this issue mainly wandering around...
Sorry, it wasn't my intention to give rise to such feelings. I suppose you're not an entomologist, so there is no reason to be ashamed about it.
Gabi, this is a relative common species in Romania.
Thank you Doina. I would say that will have to tell a BIG thank you to Sara ('cause she found it).
