I've was working away in Greece last week, staying in a coastal hotel west of Patras in a small town called Kaminia. We have a factory c5km inland from there where I spent most of the week, and as usual I didn't get much of a chance to have a look around the area. All I did manage was to poke the camera at a few inverts that were all pretty easily found over a few half-hour searches of roadside scrub and weeds. Most photos are not great, limited chances whilst trying to cope with either bright sunshine or dusky conditions, but you get the gist. I'll post a few groups, starting with this black and red themed collection of hemiptera.
Possibly Graphosoma italicum
Possibly Ornate Shieldbug (Eurydema ornatum)
Firebug (Pyrrhocoris apterus)
Not sure, apart from it's not a Firebug
No idea on this one either so far
Think this one is Cercopis arcuata
Terrible photo - think this one is Spilostethus equestris
