Stink Bug

Dear Loan,
Are you certain the hatchlings are the same species as the adult?  The adult is not Coreidae, but rather Stink Bug family Pentatomidae, and it looks exactly like the individual identified on this You Tube video as “Stinkbug species – similar to Pentatoma rufipes or Euschistus heros” however the striped legs found on your indivdiual and the one in the You Tube video are different from the two species mentioned.  The former is a European species with red legs based on this Nature Spot posting, and the latter has brown legs based on the Insecticide Resistance Action Committee site, so we are confident that neither names species is correct. Your individual looks like this unidentified Stink Bug posted to Insetologia.  Perhaps Cesar Crash will write in with an identification.  The hatchlings might be Coreid Bugs, but we are not certain.

Hemipteran Hatchlings

The young one is diferent from the adult MY mistake
Sorry
Att,
Loan Barros

Dear Ann,
This is a Two Spotted Stink Bug, as you can see by viewing this BugGuide image.  It is a beneficial predator, and according to BugGuide:  “each individual is capable of destroying an average of 231.5 Colorado potato beetle eggs during its nymphal development and 150 to 200 larvae during its lifetime.”

I found some of these bugs on my muscadine grapevines when I was picking grapes. The bugs are shy, as I was attempting to snap their picture, they kept quickly crawling on the underside of the leaves.

Immature Jewel Bug

Dear Yerahmplee,
This is an immature Shield Bug in the family Scutellaridae, and interestingly, they are commonly called Jewel Bugs because of their bright, metallic coloration.  Your individual resembles this individual posted to FlickRiver.

This appears to me to be a juvenile insect. Maybe Japanese Beetle but I cannot find pictures to support my hunch. I found several on my avocado three this evening.
Thanks

Stink Bug Nymphs

Dear Bob,
Immature Japanese Beetles are grubs that live underground and that look nothing like the mature Japanese Beetles.  These are immature Stink Bugs.
