family Largidae
Size about 2cm, eat fruits.
Juan, I think you are right. Thanks for the ID !
I think this is a Largidae bug
Body structure is close to Coreoidea
S Frazier, thanks for the comment. Common name changed. Karen and auntnance, thanks for the suggestions, it's close but I don't think they are the same insect. Still searching...
replace "family" with "order" above please
Yes, it is a "bug" (family Hemiptera) rather than a beetle (family Coleoptera).
Or of soapberry bug; http://soapberrybug.org/01_cms/details.a...
Possibly a species of cotton stainer? http://bugguide.net/node/view/75917
Look like a Stink bug
