The Western conifer seed bug

The western conifer seed bug, "Leptoglossus occidentalis", sometimes abbreviated as WCSB, is a species of true bug in the family Coreidae. It was originally native to the warm-temperate western USA but has in recent times expanded its range and become an invasive species in parts of Europe.
