Iris et al, Seems there could be a few insects matching the descriptions. Any chance of getting some pictures of them? I'm thinking they may by Lygus spp., perhaps Macrolophus or another type of Myrid bug (true bugs). Keep us posted if you ever do identify them!

To: <[email protected]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset=iso-8859-1; reply-type=original Hi folks, I seem to have missed digest no 37. The only one I have missed in several years and I am wondering if perhaps there was a problem. I sent an e-mail to the webmaster but I think it may have gone astray. Any help welcome.
