SoI: Zelus renardii - Treehopper {Renardi's} Assassin Bug (CA)


Quote:
Two species have been encountered in our area. Z. tetracanthus Stal (formerly known as Z. socius) is the larger of the two (13-16 mm) and has four small spines on the pronotum. Z. renardii Kolenati (Fig. 11) is smaller (10-13 mm) and lacks distinct spines on the pronotum. The smaller species is more brightly colored. Living specimens are bright green with red wings. Dried specimens fade greatly. These two species were not differentiated in our survey.

There may be people who like centipedes. I have seen people handling tarantulas and scorpions, but never a centipede handler. I would regard such a person with deep suspicion...Now what sort of man or woman or monster would stroke a centipede on its underbelly "And here is my big good centipede." If such a man exists, I say kill him without more ado. He is a traitor to the human race.
