Leaf-footed bugs (pair)

Leptoglossus fulvicornis

Description:

This species is known to feed on the fruits of magnolia trees. ///// "This species can be mistaken easily for Leptoglossus oppositus because of the absence of a transverse humeral fascia, but is readily recognisable by the flaring, dentate pronotal margins, uniformly brown head, and much less deeply scalloped outer hind tibial dilation" - Baranowski, Coreidae of Florida

Habitat:

In a magnolia tree outside our hotel
