Sorry this is not a post about a sexy little water spirit it is a gallery of photographs of Coreus marginatus, the Dock Bug.
Yesterday I wrote a post about the rostrum of Coreus marginatus and it got 37 likes. Who would have thought entomology could be so interesting?
I know that it is a bit much doing the bug twice but I need to have these photographs on the blog so that I can find them when I need them.
You never know when you are going to need photographs of a late instar nymph of Coreus marginatus. “Be Prepared” that’s my motto.

I agree. It is always best to be prepared. What strange little creatures these are – like bits of bark or nut-shell

Smashing! …Perhaps that is the wrong term to use on a post about a bug. 🙂

Great collection of photos. I hope you have these backed up. I would never trust WP as a database!
