Collecting seeds, and in my collection these guys came, I'm pretty sure from only one seed pod.

But, (I hate the cucumber beetle) I think that is what they WERE ( things lived forEVER under a sandwich bag in heat of over 90 degrees.)

If I made a major mistake, please educate me!!

Thanks!

(sorry if the image does not show up, updated my Safari on Mac, and I cant preview)

I'll upload if not!!

This is a nymph of a stink bug (Hemiptera/Heteroptera: Pentatomidae). Beetles have complete metamorphosis, with the immature stage called larvae, not nymphs.

Wow I'm glad I caught them then.

(I wish there was a way to receive emails when someone answers a question in the forum.)
