Stinkbugs (Pentatomidae) (4 Galleries)

Stinkbugs are adept at turning away potential predators just by their smell (the skunks of the insect world I guess). Most have scent glands on their thorax which can open to discharge quite a stink.

Many stinkbugs are beneficial predators on insect 'pests'. Some stinkbugs eat vegetation. Some eat both vegetable and animal.
