predatory nymphs marching Florida Predatory Stink Bug Nymphs on the march

We are relatively certain these are Florida Predatory Stink Bug nymphs, Euthyrhynchus floridanus. The social marching behavior is interesting. We do not know at what stage the nymphs become solitary hunters, and we have not been successful at finding that information. This Stink Bug is also called a Halloween Bug.
