Hello all,



I photographed this insect (Reduviidae?) in Dominican Republic in March 2009.



Is the behavior shown here (2 first legs in the air) a dissuasive behavior like the one shown by the Japanese Beetle (Popillia japonica)?





Is it possible to know its family/genus/species?







Thank you very much in advance,







Michel
