Field Notes

Description:

This is a shield bug. Right now it is a baby. It's orangish red. It changes to a greyish green color when it is an adult. It looks big in this picture but it's not. In reality, it's only 1 centimeter long and 1/2 centimeter wide.

Habitat:

We found this on a leaf in Singapore. We found it in the SAS rainforest.
