Eurydema oleracea
Species of Eurydema are dramatically coloured, usually red and black bugs, but often with other color morphs. In E. oleracea the dark metallic green/blue-black ground color is overlain with red, yellow, cream or orange markings. This bug overwinters as an adult, emerging in the spring.
This species has a wide distribution in the eastern Palearctic ecozone. It is found in Western Europe except for northern Scandinavia, Kazakhstan, most of Russia, the mountainous regions of west and central Asia and in North Africa. I have spotted it next to one shield bug on the meadow next to the river...
Other names: crucifer shield bug, the cabbage bug, brassica shield bug.
I know just didn't find any info about it, don't know if exists but yes, very logical conclusion, good to see that someone is reasoning like me ;)
Can you explain why are you sure this is it? Is not native to this area, plus I haven't find any identical photos apart from http://horticulture.oregonstate.edu/cont... and plus is much smaller than a stink bug
