Stink bug nymph (Pentatomidae), Perak, Malaysia.

Lovely stinkbug that shows a bright-red abdomen in flight.

I found this nymph of a "true bug" (Heteroptera, Hemiptera) on a new flower of Toyon (Heteromeles arbutifolia, Rosaceae) in the woods today. I believe it's some kind of Stink Bug in the family Pentatomoidea with 5-segmented antennae. There are many different kinds, so 'nuff said. (San Marcos Pass, 10 July 2022)

Inyo County, California, US

This Pentatomid didn't seem to be as bothered as I was on the hot tin roof!

Nezara viridula. Els Poblets, Alicante, Spain.

Species Euthyrhynchus floridanus - Florida Predatory Stink Bug

This is a stink bug nymph. As he sheds skin throughout his life, he'll come to resemble a normal stinkbug more.

So many interesting insects to photograph with the macro! Some were species I don't recall seeing and will see if I can sort them out for identifications :)

The Hitchhiker -

If you do think this is just an ordinary shield bug, look again. A Martian, revealing himself at the back of a true bug; large bulbous head and slanting almond eyes, pointy chin in black membrane suit. Here's an alien hitching a free ride, until he navigates back to the flying disc, the bug doesn't even realise.

After an evening of delicious ravioli dinner, then some cookie pudding for dessert, then some Devils beating the Sabres, and then the dog show, we realized we still needed a picture for today. But what was there to take a picture of? Pookie and I each grabbed a camera and staggered about desperately and mostly hopelessly. The best we could find was my friend the stinkbug. What a romantic Valentine's Day.

Skunk Creek Bed, near the sports complex, Peoria Arizona. Between the drought, the destruction of native flora by some so-called grounds' keeping firm and the spread of alien grasses, little in the way of native insect life to be seen even on the remaining Sweetbush. Less than a handful of dragonflies around the drainage outlets.

I found this handsome Stink Bug (Pentatomidae) on leaf of native Coast Live Oak (Quercus agrifolia, Fagaceae) in the woods today. (San Marcos Pass, 11 February 2024)

The green stink bugs which are indigenous to my area are much less common than the brown marmorated stinkbugs that have been introduced from Asia. But the green ones don't come into your house except by accident.

Introduced from East Asia. First US record 1998 in Allentown, PA (Wikipedia). Milton, MA 5/28/15

Found this little bug crawling around & was intrested in the soft interdict pattern along the hard shell of it's body.

They've changed from pale green to mottled pink with red spot and black lines. The green egg in the front probably isn't fertile.

 

A small stinkbug, Mormidea lugens, said to be associated with grasses, but here found on goldenrod. Captured (and later released) for a photo session. I like the rather armored look.

Crawling up the outside of a window.

Outside -- where he belongs! :)

Not as common as the Brown or Rough Stink Bug around here.

Brochymena arborea; Cunningham Falls State Park, Frederick Co., MD

I found this uncommon but spreading leatherbug hitching a lift on a pallet of goods I was unloading into a store in Andover! The goods actually came for m a distribution centre in Stoke; so I'm not sure of the provenance. If from Stoke it will be one of it's most northerly locations so far I believe. Andover, Hampshire, UK. 2011-12-22.

 

See where this picture was taken. [?]

Pentatomoidea is a superfamily of insects in the Heteroptera suborder of the Hemiptera order, which are commonly referred to as shield bugs or stink bugs.

 

Shield bugs have glands in their thorax between the first and second pair of legs which produce a foul smelling liquid. This liquid is used defensively to deter potential predators and is sometimes released when the bugs are handled carelessly.
