Widebody, Pt. 3 - _TNY_5181

This shield bug is a Carpocoris fuscispinus. It lacks a vernacular English name, but the Swedish one basically translates into "wide shield bug".

 

Met this one by the ruins of the 18th century mill at Åva Stensjödal in Tyresta National Park just south of Stockholm, Sweden.
