There are still a few quite small jumping spiders to be found, probably this season’s crop.<\/p>\n

Sandalodes superbus.<\/p>\n

Opisthoncus? species.<\/p>\n

There are still some wasps on the prowl, this is a female White-spotted Ichneumonid, Echthromorpha intricatoria. She uses her ovipositor to inject eggs into pupae of moths and butterflies, particularly the admiral family.<\/p>\n

A longicorn beetle that came to the moth light, Symphyletes nodusus.<\/p>\n
