Jewel Bug - Chrysocoris cf. dilaticollis Jewel Bugs from the region are often too easily referred to as "Chrysocoris stollii" (or stolli), as that is the most notorious pest in the genus, but it is a large genus with many species that all look superficially alike.

    Hi Albert,
    I've taken the liberty to remove the ID and re-identify this as dilaticollis (changed it back in the process in order to be able to edit something in the description for stollii, so you may have gotten some bogus notifications about this ;o)
