Stinkbug, predatory, nymph (Apoecilus) with European Pine Sawfly

Reveler Conservation Area

These predatory stinkbugs are quite fierce hunters and this one has skewered a sawfly. Often you'll find the blackened bodies of larvae hanging from vegetation, a sure sign a predatory stinkbug has been at work.

Good photo and nice information. Did not know they were carnivores, or rather omnivores.. Vote.
