Shield-backed Bug

thanks martil, it indeed is scutelleridae......... i went through the link you shared of wikipedia.

Thank you Martin. WangduPhuntsok please put 'Shield-backed bug' in common name and 'Family: Scutelleridae' in scientific name. Thanks. Good find Wangdu.

Yes, this bug has a single enlarged scutellum covering all wings
It is from scutelleridae and looks a bit like Eucorysses grandis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scutellerid...

It was a only wild guess at family name. I don't think it is correct for a scientific name. Maybe Scutelleridae might be better search start but I'm no expert. Let's hope others will comment. If I find a true ID I will put it in 'Suggest an ID'.

thanks Mark.......

maybe Pentatomidae ?
