Brown Hairstreak predated by Stink Bug?
Posted: Mon Aug 19, 2019 7:34 pm
On the Surrey Butterfly walk on Denbies hillside yesterday we found a fresh female Brown Hairstreak in the Blackthorn.
On closer examination it was impaled through the abdomen by a spike from what we think is a Stink Bug, similar to a shield bug.
Has anyone else seen this before and can you identify the mystery bug?
