10-X-08 Estos pequeños y escurridizos chinches rojos con soles negros sobre las alas se llaman Chinches de Fuego o Pyrrhocoris apterus (Hemiptera: Pyrrhocoridae). Son abundantes al Jardinet de l'Om...Generalmente se les encuentra por debajo de los troncos y las piedras, pero este otoño les ha dado por vivir sobre la Gardenia...A ver si los encontrais!

My favorite bug. The Fire Bug. (Pyrrhocoris apterus). Climbing down the cellar wall. It's about 15 mm long. I have a few hundred of these bugs at Bergdalen.

"1 error" says Firebug. The connection has timed out maybe? Hmm, just found this amusing.

I love Switerland - I just never know what I'm going to see there next!!!
One day it might be a marmot or a deer; another it's a butterfly or beetle I've never seen before!
These are known as Red Firebugs: I must admit that - until I started searching to give this photo a proper title - I'd never known their name and simply thought of them as 'African Mask bugs' for their resemblance to the faces seen on tribal masks.
I saw this colony of them on a stone wall by a hillside road in the Swiss Alps near Lugano.
There are nymphs (no wing cases) as well as adults.
