Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (Halyomorpha Halys) - Animal India
The brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys) is an insect in the family Pentatomidae, native to India, China, Japan, Korea, and other parts of Asia. Recently, the bug has been accidentally introduced to countries such as the United States, Georgia, Turkey, and various parts of Europe. Adult brown marmorated stink bugs are approximately 1.7 cm (0.67 in) long and nearly as wide, forming the heraldic shield shape characteristic of bugs in the superfamily Pentatomoidea. Both nymphs and adults of the brown marmorated stink bug feed on over 100 species of plants, including many agricultural crops such as apples, apricots, Asian pears, cherries, corn, grapes, lima beans, peaches, peppers, tomatoes, and soybeans. A brown marmorated stink bug was observed on a red cloth in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on September 22, 2024. (Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)
