Shield Bug

Thx for your help Tiz :))

Oh, I was looking at the purp. as well, it is a tie :) At least the bug kept us occupied for a while injica :D

So now, there are about 20 subspecies to choose from. Here is a picture of Carpocoris mediterraneus that I find similar to your spotting: http://www.flickr.com/photos/unovidual/7...
I really hope that this helped you a bit :)
