Description: There are three close to identical-looking members of the Loxa genus in Brazil: Loxa deducta (Walker, 1867), Loxa virescens (Amyot & Serville, 1843) and Loxa viridis (Palisot de Beauvois, 1805, according to some places, while in others, Palisot, 1811). All of them possess distribution in the state of Santa Catarina, in Brazil.
L. viridis occurs, according to the source I will provide further down, in Florida and Texas to Brazil and Argentina; Floreana, Isabela, Santa Cruz. I had to resort to the study of morphology to differentiate them.
L. viridis's general color is green. The lateral margins of the juga are often lighter in coloring than the disk on the head. Anterolateral margins on the pronotrum are serrated, normally lighter than the pronotrum disk; umeral angles very projected with sharp spikes, moderately to very elevated, directioned laterally or anterolaterally, sporting the same coloring as the anterolateral margins or red. They possess a pale spot on the peak of the radial venation. Males measure from 18,3 to 25,3mm, while females range from 18,9 to 25,3mm.
L. virescens has a green generalized coloring. The pronotrum normally has a transversal line of pale wrinkles between the umeral angles; umeral spikes are normally lighter than the pronotrum disk, rarely red; anterolateral margins are crennelated. The corium normally has a disk-like pale spot, with this sometimes being concolored and obscure or totally absent. Males are usually 18,7-21,4mm in size, while females range from 19,2-24,7mm in size.
L. deducta has a generalized green coloring. The juga has dense red punctuations on the medium and lateral margins, these sometimes concolored in the medium band. Clypeum with a medium band normally punctuated in red approximately until the basal half. The pronotrum's anterolateral margin is serrated; umeral angles developed in elevated spikes projected laterally. Corium with numerous pale and disperse calli. Adults measure around 13,3 to 16,3mm in males and 16,3 to 19,4mm in females.
The genus Loxa are known to feed on Anarcadiaceae (Lythraea brasiliensis March.; Schinus molle L.) ("Aroeira-Cinzenta"; "Aroeira-Mansa"), Euphorbiaceae (Sebatiania klotzschiana (Müll. Arg.)) ("Branquinho"), Fabaceae (Glycine max (L.) Merrill; Bauhinia candicans Benth.; Tipuana tipu (Benth.) DC.) ("Soja"; "Pata-de-Vaca"; "Tipa"); Oleaceae (Ligustrum lucidium (Ait.)) ("Ligustro"); Solanaceae (Solanum sisymbrifolium Lam.) ("Joá"). There may be more.
Loxa viridis was the conclusion I reached, but giving the benefit of the doubt as I'm no expert, I'll leave the species as doubtful until further notice. Loxa viridis is a member of the order Hemiptera, suborder Heteroptera infraorder Pentatomomorpha, superfamily Pentatomoidea, family Pentatomidae, subfamily Pentatominae and tribe Chlorocorini, although some entities place them under the tribe Pentatomini.

I usually have seen these critters plastered to my walls around my patio doors in the summer and in the winter when they have snuck in and show up stuck to my drapes or buzzing around a lamp. They are very aptly named as they put out a very stinky obnoxious smell when touched. I think they are an import from Japan/Asia.

Man-face stinkbug aka Samurai Stinkbug. Found a good number flying around during the evening
Look closely at the stinkbugs in your house...there is a great deal of beauty there. Halyomorpha halys
Why these guys were on my (already struggling) rosemary instead of my tomato plants I'll never know... but I thought before I get rid of them, I'd get a few shots. :) Until I decide to shell out for Lightroom, though, this is the only one I have the patience to edit in GIMP.

Brown marmorated stink bug (halyomorpha halys) - a visitor to our garden that was doing no harm, but which is widely regarded as an agricultural pest, often causing damage to fruit crops.
I heard that last winter's polar vortex has cut back the stink bug population tremendously. I'm hoping this guy is one of the few survivors.
You know, it must be rough being known around town as "Stinkbug". I mean, doesn't that just have a double connotation that leads to a negative impression? A bug. Can be cute, right? Rarely are they wanted guests, though. "Stink", though, really sinks it. I mean, how much of a reputation would you have even if your name was odor? Stinkbug has a bad rap.
In America its known as the Green Stink Bug because of its malodorous smell. Its a pest and eats fruit and plants.
This Stinkbug was kind enough to stay still while I composed this image. This one is one of my best, so far, with the technique of stacking my 3X and 2X teleconverters behind my 1:1 macro yielding up to a 6X macro. Imaged on October 05, 2008, in rural upstate Columbia County, NY, USA. Camera: Canon 350D and Pre-AI Micro-Nikkor 55mm f3.5 lens and Nikon PK-3 1:1 tube and Samigon F mount 3X teleconverter and Vivitar 2X F mount teleconverter plus Fotodiox Nikon mount to Canon mount adapter ring, hand held and braced against a cinder block wall, manually focused, manual mode, 1/200 sec, ISO 400, with fill-in flash from camera's built-in electronic flash.
Green Shield Bug Palomena prasina otherwise known ans The Stink Bug they give off an osour if moed or provoked!
I found this one on a nasturtium, tasty little flower.
Gone to the 'Dark side'
It wouldn't sit still, so this was the only shot I could get of this very dark stinkbug.
Spined Soldier Bug (Podisus Maculiventris), a variety of stink bug. Identifiable by the outward pointing spines near the top. Unlike the more well known Brown Marmorated Stink Bug that's an invasive pest, the Soldier Bug is beneficial and eats several common garden pests. On the lower right is a Turks Cap flower.

Here is another little Stink Bug in the family Pentatomidae in a seed capsule of native Late-flowered Mariposa Lily (Calochortus fimbriatus, Liliaceae) in the woods a few days ago. I believe it will spend the winter here, see this photo. HBBBT! (San Marcos Pass, 19 November 2022)
