''Graphosoma lineatum'' is a species of shield bug in the family Pentatomidae. It has long been the name used for the European "Minstrel Bug", but eventually the name Graphosoma italicum has been re-instated out of synonymy for the European species and the older name Graphosoma lineatum is now reserved for the paler North African animals that are (once again) considered to be a separate species.
