a Red Tiger Assassin Bug, common in the region but my first time seeing one.
this individual was slowly exploring one of our Jacaranda trees, searching for a meal. this last photo offers an excellent view of their sucking mouthparts, found in all true bugs but specialised in assassins for subdueing and consuming small insects as prey.
Red Tiger Assassin Bug (Havinthus rufovarius).
#808 - Piestolestes obscurus
Fam. Reduviidae,
IDed by Dr Mallik Malipatil, an expert on Hemiptera, as Havinthus longiceps - Long-headed Assassin Bugs. If it had been, it would have been the first record for the species in WA on the Atlas of Living Australia, and the first photo. Unfortunately, years later, it’s turned out he was quite wrong.
Found under bark on a tree branch a meter off the ground, along with millipedes, beetles, and so on. Baldivis, Perth
The empty skin of a Red Tiger Assassin, Havinthus sp.
My first thought was that it had fallen victim to the spider, but then, why isn't it wrapped in silk? And if it was a molt, why isn't it shriveled and pale? Perhaps it fell victim to another Havinthus.
#301 - Red Tiger Assassin
A large & striking assassin bug that I found poking around the bark of a gum tree. She certainly have me some filthy looks when she noticed me looming over her. I didn't risk picking her up - assassin bug bites can be quite painful.
Thanks to princesscockroach's suggestions, I'm pretty sure this is Havinthis rufovarius. There's two other Australian Havinthus I've found online, and Neohavinthus too, but I'm fairly confident I've found a match.
