Cotton Stainer Bug
Dysdercus sp.
16.1869, -92.2758
Field Notes
Description:
One of the Cotton Stainers, Dysdercus sp., Family Pyrrhocoridae. This one has pinker elytra with darker legs and smaller dorsal spots than a previous spotting of Dysdercus bimaculata from north-central Mexico (https://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/1976246002/fullscreen). This one was on a sign post. A side view of the bug clearly shouts that he's not a good thing to eat.
Habitat:
Found along the San Vicente River, Chiflón Waterfall Park, Chiapas, Mexico.
