I spotted this Soldier Beetle larva inside a web and it had this Stinkbug partially consumed. We were thinking it is a type of beetle larva....hopefully Odonata457 can figure it out? I only know it is pretty cool even if a bit horrible.
This was shot with the NEX-5N macro lens and edited in iMovie. I really like having the sound on the track, which I don't get using the Casio EX-F1 high-speed movie mode.
A few minutes ago I was sitting at my computer editing photos, and felt a gradual pinpricking, stinging sensation in a finger on my right hand.It felt so much like a sting I looked down carefully and SURPRISE...it was a stinkbug drilling into my finger with his piercing mouthparts! In all the times I've seen and picked up and befriended the little buggers, I've never had one try to bite me.They live on plant juices, so this is extremely unusual.

This little stink bug was crawling on my house, don't ever squash one of these or you will be sorry! The stink smell is worse than a skunk.
Among the non-native plants surrounding the ball-field fence, above Skunk Creek, Peoria Arizona. My first venture outside, with or without the camera, since being a touch unwell. Luckily for me the sun was shining brightly and the warmth attracted a few of the insects around.
CLIMBING — Rice stinkbug climbs a rice grain head. High numbers in July and August 2021 have prompted UA System Division of Agriculture entomologists to seek a Section 18 exemption, allowing growers to use Endigo in rice to help manage this pest.

These bugs are becoming one of my favourite bugs so far. The shape, the colors, the patterns. Everything is so cool!
Ok, just when I thought they were ready to leave I still find myself face-to-face with stinkbugs before breakfast, this one on my desk this morning. Seems they're not the same ones most of us occasionally encountered as children, no, this particular type is introduced (no surprise) from the far east. We have to stop importing so much from China.

The strength of the Florida Predatory Stinkbug (and Assassin Bugs) always amazes me. The Stinkbug won.

My old Nikon P90 camera still provides far more detail than Samsung Galaxy A21s phone camera.

known generally as the juniper stink bug or jade stinkbug, a welcomed change from the normally larger brown marmorated stink bug. These are a lovely green and yellow and are roughly half the size of their brown counterparts.

I have been disgusted by the invasion of stinkbugs this fall - but I had to admit that this one was beautiful -
At first it reminded me of a Samurai - then, since it's the day after Halloween, I thought it looked like a witch's face -
Pentatomidae, Greek pente meaning five and tomos meaning section, are a family of insects belonging to order Hemiptera including some of the stink bugs and shield bugs.
The scutellum body is typically half of an inch long, green or brown color, usually trapezoidal in shape, giving this family the name "shield bug".
The stink bug, also called stinkbug, derives its name from its tendency to eject a foul smelling glandular substance secreted from pores in the thorax when disturbed; in some species the liquid contains cyanide compounds with a rancid almond scent. This is a form of antipredator adaptation.
Many stink bugs and shield bugs are considered agricultural pest insects, because they can create large populations which feed on crops (damaging production), and they are resistant to many pesticides. They are a threat to cotton, corn, sorghum, soybeans, native and ornamental trees, shrubs, vines, weeds, and many cultivated crops.
However, some genera of Pentatomidae are considered highly beneficial: the anchor bug, which can be distinguished by the red-orange anchor shape on the adult, is one example. It is a predator of other insects, especially Mexican bean beetles, Japanese beetles, and other pest insects.
They also are commonly eaten in Laos, and are regarded as delicious due to their extremely strong odor. The insects are sometimes pounded together with spices and a seasoning to prepare cheo, a paste mixed with chilies and herbs.
