| 説明 | This shiny jewel is a polyphagous bug feeding on leaves, twigs and fruits of various plants (e.g. Litchi chinensis); by de-sapping it causes damage to these food plants of economic value.The name of the bug family is either jewel bugs or shield-backed bugs, due to the enlargement of the last section of their thorax into a continuous shield over the abdomen and wings. This latter characteristic distinguishes them from most other families within heteroptera, and may lead to misidentification as a beetle rather than a bug [Wikipedia].possibly: C. patricius or C. stolli WOLFGenus: Chrysocoris HAHN, 1834 (Prachtwanzen, Jewel bugs)Subfamily: ScutellerinaeFamily: Scutelleridae LEACH, 1815 (jewel bugs, metallic shield bugs, shield-backed bugs, Schildwanzen)Superfamily: PentatomoideaInfraorder: PentatomomorphaSuborder: Heteroptera (typical bugs, Wanzen)Order: Hemiptera (true bugs, Schnabelkerfe)Subclass: Pterygota (Fluginsekten) Class: Insecta (insects, Insekten)Indonesia, W-Papua, 60km WNW Sorong (Raja Ampat), vic.
