@AnnvanWijgerden: I thought it was a stink bug too, but I looked at the BugGuide, and I found some bugs that resemble it very much. And also, in the second picture, you can see the long rostrum under its chin, caracteristic of assassin bugs. However, I am allways open to sugestions, so I'll keep looking for more informations. Thank you.
