Hello,

First one and last one are bugs (Heteroptera).

2nd: Mystery 40 = Asilidae (Dioctria spec.; I think), Mystery 41 = Conopidae.
3rd: Mystery 4 = Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera)
4th: Insect 1 = Braconidae/Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera), Insect 2 = Ptychopteridae (Ptychoptera spec.), Insect 3 = Tipulidae.

I think there is some confusion about what I meant to say with
4th: Insect 1 = Braconidae/Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera), Insect 2 = Ptychopteridae (Ptychoptera spec.), Insect 3 = Tipulidae.


I was refering to the 4th link. The first two pictures (10172 and 10239) are of Insect 1 of which I was not sure if these pictures show Braconidae or Ichneumonidae (Proctoss is probably right in considering both to be Braconidae). Insect 2 (10232 and 10229) show Ptychopteridae (Ptychoptera spec.) So Insect 2 is not Braconidae. Insect 3 (10235 and 10235xxy) show Tipulidae.

One species per thread would have made this topic a lot less messy ...

Yes apologies it is confusing worse still when uploading and coordinating these images . However a simple logical approach would be

http://www.judywo...ery14.html

Not Sure. They are two different green insects on this page. The last possibly a shield bug the first I am very speculatively suggesting ???? Dycyphus epilobii ??

Not Sure

http://www.judywo...tery4.html
Not sure

http://www.judywo...ery71.html

They are three insects on this page. The middle one is Ptychoptera albimana (look at white marks on legs) The Third is A Cranefly or Tipulid

Not Sure but obviously a shield bug of sorts

Many thanks for all you had a go apologies for any confusion

Best wishes

Colin -
14A is probably Megaloceraea recticornis (Miridae)
14b is probably Orthotylus sp. (Miridae)
13 is Grypocoris sexguttatus (Miridae)
40 is Dioctria linearis (Asilidae)
41 is Physocephala rufipes (Conopidae)
And please, please, post the images, not links, to the relevant forum, one insect per thread. It's a bit more work for you, but it's a lot less work for everyone else! And these multiple url enquiries are very difficult to refer back to, so they are of limited value for others to learn from. Wink
