Pentatomidae is a family of insects belonging to the order Hemiptera, generally called shield bugs or stink bugs. . This stink bug is quite big, and you can really see the shield on its back, just like the name its bear.
I found it on the dried bush flower behind my house, It was after rain, and that is the reason why this bug wasn't as skittish as it used to be, and I could have a lot of time to take as many photos as I want, and lucky also this bug cooperative, and gave me the chance.
it has a long antennae, and and also a rather small head compared too its big body. Mostly the color of this bug is broken, and some bright yellow can also be seen on the underside of this bug.
Here you can see better the back of this bug that resembles the shield, which I think is kind of a hard part of its body that protected the delicate folded wings under the shield.
