Cloresmus Modestus - Bamboo Bug - Animal India

The ''Bamboo Bug'' or ''Bamboo Coreid,'' Cloresmus modestus, is a species of diurnal true bug in the leaf-footed bug family. It is considered a serious pest of bamboo shoots in China, India, Myanmar, Vietnam, and Singapore. This true bug feeds on the sap of bamboo, potentially causing damage by extracting nutrients and hindering growth. The antennae of the nymphal instars and adults play a role in communication among individuals and in locating host plants.
