Pin Placement
Bees, wasps, flies, etc. — Pin through the thorax between bases of fore wings and slightly to right of middle line (A). True bugs — Pin through the scutellum, which is the triangular area between the bases of the wings (B). Grasshoppers, crickets, etc. — Pin through the prothorax or “saddle” slightly to the right of the center line (C and D). Beetles — Pin through the forepart of the right wing cover near the centerline (E). Butterflies, moths, dragonflies, etc. — Pin through center of thorax between the bases of forewings (F and G).
