New Weekly contest | Piezodorus Litoratus 2 | Beautiful bugs, Bugs and insects, animals
These few days, it rained suddenly, but the soil and vegetation still need more rainwater infiltration. I have combed a number of locations in the forest where I live, I see the history of intivebrates that are still reluctant to leave their nests. Summer continues this March, a number of insects are still hiding in the thickets. I found some pictures of summer insects.
Scutelleridae is a family of true bugs. They are commonly known as jewel bugs or metallic shield bugs due to their often brilliant coloration. They are also known as shield-backed bugs due to the enlargement of the thoracic scutellum into a continuous shield over the abdomen and wings. This latter characteristic distinguishes them from most other families within Heteroptera, and may lead to misidentification as a beetle rather than a bug. These insects feed on plant juices from a variety of different species, including some commercial crops. Closely related to stink bugs, they may also produce an offensive odour when disturbed. There are around 450 species worldwide.
The Scutelleridae insect, from its scientific name, has a color that varies from black and green to red on its shell. This insect is a summer insect, it can survive under the hot sun.
