Meet Jay ! The name was given to this little fellow by the boys this morning. He sat at the table and wasn’t scared at all.
So I had to find out what he was. Assuming he is a he!
For insects I use the app to study. It’s a Colorado potato beetle.
Its also found in this site https://www.kad.nl/kennisbank/dierplagen/kevers/coloradokever/
We have to say that for the contest
Information taking from the app / picturethis/ information is in the screen after you scanned the insect / I also have it for birds and flowers !!!
The Colorado potato beetle is a clearly recognizable yellow and black striped beetle from about 8-10 mm long. You see my nail so the size is understandable when you look at the picture. The beetle is yellow blank and each have 5 black stripes. The beetles can fly pretty well. This one stayed on my hand before I put them on my mums flowers. Colorado potato beetle and all insect worth knowing or felt the need to study. I get from my - picture insect- app. I am using the limited version. This app also has a version for flowers and plants called picture this. I didn't know this beetle but what a beautiful little animal!
The name I got :
Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say)
Insect Order: Coleoptera (beetles)
Insect Family: Chrysomelidae (leaf beetles)
Also known as : Leptinotarsa - decemlinearta
The screenshot of my app shows it was taken this morning. By me! The nail and hand in the picture were mine.
Funny was that my sister in law yelled
Omg what is that , and my boys said mum do a blog about this boy. He was relaxed and after I screenshotted him I put him on the flowers in my mums garden bed next to the parasol. The yellow colored good with his stripes !
