Field Notes

Description:

I'm not sure, but on my brief analysis might be a nymph of Pentatomidae or something very close to that.

Habitat:

Interior of Brazil, MG, coffee-growing region.

Notes:

Love the order Hemiptera. They are not the insects with the largest number of species, but certainly its variations are among the most spectacular, abundant and easy to find over the globe.

So pretty! Nice photo Leonardo! I think Hemiptera is also my favourite order. Like you said, the variations are particularly beautiful.
