This is a perfect fit for the "Brooding behavior in insects and other invertebrates mission" http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8176... Please add it. Thanks

I have to change my suggestion from Anoplocnemis to Physomerus grossipes. The latter is the correct ID. It is said that the female of P. grossipes is regarded as providing the "best known example" of "maternal care in the large family Coreidae."

Really liked the video - a lovely minute or so in the insect world. Perfect music! :-)
