Common Ground hopper
Posted: Wed Aug 11, 2010 4:48 pm
Hello all, we were out in Westminster park in Chester yesterday at the Cheshire West and Chester Councils 'Take A Risk' day aimed at getting parents and their children to engage with the outdoors in whatever form.
Obviously we were there to try and encourage people to have a go at recording. During the day we were able to find a whole host of invertebrates (many of which I can't id) from in and around their recently planted conservation area.
One of the delights was my first sighting of a Common Ground hopper Tetrix undulata, I think?!
If anyone can help with the id from the appalling photo then I would be very grateful and quite frankly amazed.
Many thanks,
Eric
