Summary

| Description |
English: A Green Lacewing (Chrysopa perla) This is not the only species of Green Lacewing in Britain; there are about 18 species, some of which can be difficult to identify without a detailed examination. However, Chrysopa perla has very distinctive head markings [see e.g. "Collins Complete British Insects" by Michael Chinery].
Green Lacewings are sometimes referred to as "golden-eyes"; in fact, the genus name Chrysopa comes from the Greek "chrūsōpos", which means "with golden eyes [or face]". This photograph was taken in the evening; the insect was resting on some bushes near a riverside footpath. |
