A lacewing (Chrysopidae) nymph, spotted in my back yard, Nea Dimitriada, Volos, Greece...The bug is covered with the dead bodies of other insects (mostly ants) and it's the second one I see within a few months... Spotted in Nea Demetrias, Volos city, Greece.

Dear @Ioannis, I have no idea, if it belongs to the Acanthaspis genus...But it's the second insect of that kind (camouflaged like this!), that I spotted around my house...
I don't know if it's an acanthaspis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acanthaspis... but they use ant cadavers as a cover. Do they exist in Greece?
