The green shield bugs (Palomena prasina) are coming out if hibernation more and more, with several seen this morning; still in their darker overwintering colour.
These two little love birds (bugs) are several that are slowly eating all of the new squashes that are setting...ugh!
An assassin bug from the genus Rhynocoris hunting on lavender, South of France.
Assassin bugs are insects from the order of hemiptera, recognizable by their four-parts piercing-sucking mouthparts, and sub-order heteroptera, characterized by forewings with both hardened and membranous portions.
They are either predatory or blood-suckers (Rhodnius prolixus is the main vector of the Chagas disease), majority of predators species are able to attack any insect orders they encounter.
There's 3 species of Rhynocoris that are extremely similar to each other in France:
R. iracundus, R. cuspidatus and R.rubricus, those species can be identified by the shape of their genital capsules.

A mirid bug I found zooming around on a fence post on the driveway. I think it's Anthocoris nemorum (not Polymerus unifasciatus as I originally posted---thanks Martin Brown for the correction).
I'm starting to feel badly at how little I know about plants & insects. This little guy was mighty cute, but I don't know his name! The wild grasses in my backyard are just crawling with life! : ) Seen on June 28, 2007 in Columbia County, New York, USA. Identified as a Two-Spotted Grass Bug!
