Kite Spider / Spiny orb-weaver commented on by Pedro Beirão Makhado Local Municipality, Limpopo, South Africa10 years ago

To be fair it could also be Gasteracantha sanguinolenta as they are in South Africa as well. Can someone help ID this one? :D

Unnamed spotting commented on by Pedro Beirão Algarve, Portugal10 years ago

Wonderful little bird! Definitely a Calidris - It's portuguese common name would be Pilrito-da-areia :D

Sand-Wasp commented on by Pedro Beirão Algarve, Portugal10 years ago

Looks like a sand-wasp Bembix sp. problem is there are 9 species in Portugal (if im not mistaken) but with the spotting pictures and location being near Faro I'd say it's probably Bembix oculata http://naturdata.com/Bembix-oculata-2466...
