Coreidae, Coreinae, Paryphes sp. as you indicated and it might be Paryphes flavocinctus. http://www.flickr.com/photos/artour_a/514173578/

Spectacular! In this case, the common name of leaf-footed bug while valid for (some of) the Coreidae, doesn't really apply, does it? :-) It could also be called "a" squash bug, not "the" squash bug. :-)
