Description
Calocoris alpestris can reach a length of 9–11 millimetres (0.35–0.43 in). These large size plant bugs are entirely green, with a very elongate shape. The 1st antennal segment is very long. The base of the scutellum and thin collar behind the head may be dark. This species is very similar to Calocoris affinis, but it shows a gray-whitish membrane, with darker veining and the 1st antennal segment is usually dark in the basal part.
Range & habitat
This species is distributed in most of Europe. It is normally found in meadows, damp woodlands and in deciduous forests, preferably in the mountains (up to 2000 m). .
