Which one is the Tree Stink Bug? I am not sure which species. I did browse through the images on BugGuide. You could always post it on BugGuide (you would need to crop the first image), and see if you get a response.

Forest,the second picture shows an orangish coloration . Do you think that this could be a Tree Stink bug?

Nice find! This looks similar to the Rough Stink Bugs from Genus Brochymena. Here is a link to the BugGuide page that lists the different species. Perhaps you can find a match there. :-) http://bugguide.net/node/view/3133/bgpage
