A new species of stink bug called Amblycara innocens has been found in Taiwan and on an island called Palawan in the Philippines. Before its discovery, it was believed that the genus Amblycara contained only one species called Amblycara gladiatoria. The news species is described in the journal Acta Entomologica Musei Nationalis Pragae.

Gotta be the coolest name ever for a bug. I didn't notice when I took the picture (this is a very small bug), but appears this is a female laying an egg. Sometimes you get lucky!

It's not a bird, but it does fly :)

In nature, life is dangerous since the very beginning. The stinkbug (Hemiptera) nymphs inside these beautiful pink eggs have barely started to develop, but they have already been found by a powerful natural enemy: This tiny wasp (Hymenoptera). This is an egg parasitoid, which means it lays its own eggs inside those of other, bigger insects (exactly what it is doing now). The wasp larvae will feed on the content of the pink eggs, and, in the end, what will hatch from them are wasps, not stinkbugs. All the drama of the natural world can be observed in our own gardens.

Na natureza, a vida é perigosa desde o começo. As ninfas (imaturos) de maria-fedida dentro desses belos ovos rosados mal começaram a se desenvolver, mas já foram encontradas por um inimigo natural poderoso: Essa minúscula vespa. Ela é um parasitoide de ovos, o que significa que põe seus próprios ovos dentro dos de outros insetos (exatamente o que está fazendo na foto). As larvas dessa vespa vão se alimentar do conteúdo dos ovos rosados, e, no fim, o que vai eclodir deles são vespas, e não marias-fedidas. Todo o drama do mundo natural pode ser visto em nosso próprio jardim!

This is a Stink Bug in the family Pentatomidae among the dry seed capsules of native Bird's Beak (Cordylanthus rigidus, Orobanchaceae) in the woods yesterday. The family name is a reference to the five-segmented antennae. These insects comprise one of the largest families of true bugs with hundreds of different species in North America alone, so I won't try to guess which one it is. I also saw a late-stage nymph nearby in the same plant. (San Marcos Pass, 20 November 2020)

This goldenrod had some scarce shieldbugs, ambush bugs, and tiny flies. All survivors of the previous night's freeze. HBBBT everyone!

This insect is said to have been noticed in Romania since 2015, acording to horticulturists' websites. Maybe that's when they noticed it. The bug has been common at least since 2008.
