$Red actée\nActaea rubra ssp. rubra\nRed Baneberry\n\nFamily: Buttercups$

Wild, or wood, angelica ((Angelica sylvestris)) is a lover of shaded and moist riversides and woodlands. As with many wild flowers, it has been assigned many herbal / medicinal attributes. It has been a popular food, with leaves, young shoots and stems used as an aromatic addition to salads; or cooked and used as a vegetable. The chopped leaves are said to be a good addition to cooked acid fruits, especially rhubarb. There are recipe suggestions on the Internet. However, as with all riverside umbellifer ('umbrella') flowers, you need to be sure of your identification, since the white-flowered varieties include hemlock and water-drop hemlock, both of which are poisonous. Seen feeding in this photo is a large and common (Volucella) hoverfly.

adult Green belly bug of the species Diceraeus melacanthus

$Neottiglossa pusilla is a species of bug in the Pentatomidae family.\nCharacteristics:\nThe bedbugs become 4.5 to 6.0 millimeters long. They are pale brown in color, with paler edges on the pronotum and abdomen. A fine pale longitudinal stripe runs centrally over the pronotum and the scutellum. The relatively short and wide head is rather flattened at the front. The third limb of the antennae is a good half as long as the second. The last two limbs are dark in color.\nLifestyle:\nThe animals are found on various grasses (Poaceae), such as panicle grasses (Poa), although it is not known whether there are certain food plants. The species is also said to suck on sedges (Carex), the sourgrass family (Cyperaceae). The adults of the new generation appear from August.\nDistribution and habitat:\nThe species is widespread in the Palearctic and occurs from North Africa across Europe (with the exception of the far north) across Central Asia to China. In Central Europe, the species occurs everywhere, but is only distributed in places and only locally common. It is rarer in the north than in the south. In the Alps they can be found up to over 1000 meters above sea level. Open to half shady grass habitats are populated. In Great Britain, the species occurs locally in the south and center of England on grasslands.\n\nThis Picture is made during a long weekend in the South of Belgium in June 2006.$
