Hi, please help me identify this bug. Has somewhat velvety wings and orange and white stripes on its abdomen.

This is a bug in the superfamily Pyrrhocoroidea, either in the family Largidae or Pyrrhocoridae. Unfortunately, I cannot supply a more specific i.d. at this time.

Thanks Flapdoodle. Collected this insect from Philippine Teak forest at Lobo, Batangas. In fact most of the insects I got are colored orange. Wondering if it has something to do with the dominant trees in the area.
