Blue sheildbug

thanks Martini... How's things in Melbourne?

Oh, hello Pam.
This link describes this species as being widespread including Oriental, although, not in Victoria. I think this is your species.

thanks injica. Definitely looks like Zicrona caerulea, Blue Shieldbug. Family: Pentatomidae, but I don't find mention of it in the Himalayas.

Don't know if it lives in India but looks very much like Zicrona caeruleahttp://www.britishbugs.org.uk/heteroptera/Pentatomidae/zicrona_caerulea.html
