I've recently became interested in predatory Hemipterans :)

Will be posting pics of more assassins and other predatory Hemipterans soon so beware. Lol

Fun species! I used to have one but unfortunately it died while molting. I'm sure I'll get another one someday :) Reduviids are great to keep!

 

Sorry to hear that it died :( Hope you'll have better luck next time

That's gorgeous! Can't wait to see more pictures of them ;)

 

I agree that predacious hemipterans are awesome! :)

 

My sub-adult red spot just made its final molt!

Ooh...you have red spots? I'm so jealous!

I'd love to get hold of some of these or Microtomus purcis over in the UK. If anyone has any spare eggs I'd be interested, I have White Spot and Red Spot Assassins laying here at present. Send me a PM. :)
