I'd welcome any opinions on this ground bug, photographed in a garden in London last year. I think it must be Eremocoris, and then keys to E. podagricus on the basis of the short tibial hairs, but I have no experience of the group. All help gratefully received Tristan EDIT: I can't seem to attach another image - this can be viewed here: http://www.pbase....e/87144037 tristanba attached the following image:  [73.48Kb] Edited by tristanba on 20-10-2008 14:16 |

Hi, Tristan, it certainly looks like Eremocoris podagricus. Sue  |
