Bugs, Beetles and Hoppers at Lakenheath

 It was overcast and quite cool at the start of our RPS visit to Lakenheath though it did warm up in the late afternoon. There were lots of different insects and spiders to find, photograph and identify though not in the usual large numbers there. Here is a selection of Hemiptera, Coleoptera and Orthoptera (Pentastoma rufipes Forest bug; Picromerus bidens Spiked Bug; Coreus marginatus Dock Bug; Lygus pratensis; Hetercercus fenestratus; Oulema melanopus Cereal leaf beetle; Blepharida rhois Leaf beetle; Anthocomus rufus flower beetle; Philaenus spumarius X 2 Meadow leaf hopper ;  Conocephalus fuscus Long-winged Conehead; Tetrix subulata SlenderGround Hopper)
