Data for ENT532: Insect Diversity Collection (Jennings). Flowers where ambush bugs were found.
Insects of the family Reduviidae were found hiding behind these yellow flowers. They were able to blend in well- even their forelegs, which are thicker compared to the rest of their legs and are adapted for capturing prey, helped them blend into the bush (they were light in color and looked somewhat like the petals). Photo taken at Shaver's Creek.
