Nabis
I found this damsel bug hunting around my back door. I think it's rather brave considering how many
spiders already hang out there. © Carol Davis 9-30-10
These small, slim bugs eat insects in the adult stage as well as the nymph stage of their development. You can
probably guess how their long proboscis aids in this. I have found Nabis in my garden but since the bugs are
getting scarce, I think this one is moving on to better hunting grounds. © Carol Davis 9-30-10
This is the first of these I ever found and it was hunting in Red Butte Gardens, SLC, Utah. © Carol Davis, 6-24-05
