This is a nickle-size Stink Bug in the family Pentatomidae of the Heteroptera, Hemiptera on a leaf of Wild Blackberry (Rubus ursinus, Rosaceae). This one has five-segment antennae unlike the four-segment antennae of the bug in this photo, hence the family name Penta-tomidae. There are many different kinds, but one possibility for its identity is the Consperse Stink Bug (Euschistus conspersus). It's curious that this one looks like the bug I found sitting in a seed capsule of native Late-flowered Mariposa Lily (Calochortus fimbriatus, Liliaceae), see this photo from last November. It seemed to be spending the winter in this seed pod, but along the way it changed color from brown to green, see this photo from February! Well, it either changed color or another one took its place. It finally disappeared a couple of weeks ago. (San Marcos Pass, 16 March 2019)
No, really...not a green stinkbug. It's green, and it's a stinkbug nymph, but when he grows up, he'll be a brown stinkbug, not a green. I like his little fluted-pie-crust back end.
Appears to be Parabrochymena arborea (synonym = Brochymena arborea). This and the very similar genus Brochymena are cryptic predatory stinkbugs found on vegetation, usually in woodlands. Length about 16 mm.
A stinkbug nymph, most likely Acrosternum hilare. I don't know what made the background all "peachy" like that because I was too busy trying (largely without success) to get this little dude to stay still, but I thought it looked kind of cool.
Despite my pointing out in 2009 that these are NOT bed bugs, they haven't updated their materials in 2011. These are Striped Stink Bug (Graphosoma lineatum), which is a plant feeding species. They are completely harmless--and would never show up in your bed, unless maybe you are potting plants as you sleep.

Found on a stinkbug that had been caught and eaten by a spider. It was growing or sitting on the edge of the thorax, and it was about 1 mm tall. Fungus? Dried exudate from inside the bug? Spider poop? I should mention that these growths were only on one of the six or seven dead stinkbugs in or beneath the spider's web.

Here is a lovely gray Stink Bug in the family Pentatomidae of the Heteroptera, Hemiptera balanced (for the moment) on a couple of old berries of Wild Huckleberry (Vaccinium ovatum, Ericaceae). It's a nice pose, but it didn't last! This true bug has five-segment antennae unlike the four-segment antennae of the true bug in my [Previous] photo, hence the family name Penta-tomidae. This one might be the Consperse Stink Bug (Euschistus conspersus). There's more info and photos at BugGuide. I believe I've found this same species at home, compare this photo.
