I always thought these metallic coloured insects where exclusive of the tropics, but I've managed to photograph 2 species of these iridiscent wasps right at home.
It looks like a Dysdera crocata to me. I see the often in my garden.
Hello John!
I'm glad these images are useful to you. I have also updated the information here with what is on your site.
I have just sent you an email, sorry for the delay, I haven't been so active in Project Noah lately.
I have just uploaded the original set of images to flikr, with the original resolution, you can find it here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/39820277@N...
Hope it helps.
Stunning! Is it related to the ginger used to cook?
Long live the weirdos with the camera! It's because of them (us) we have such stunning photos of the marvels mother nature has. Images that might be the basis of the conservation of less flamboyant species.
Esta es una Escalonia sp. conocidas como siete camisas. Son Preciosas! La flor no se abre más que eso.
WOW! next time I see mould I will surely look closer, this is beautiful!
