Nice find, Felix.
I thought we have most of the stink bugs already -:), but it seems they are endless! More than 4700 species and we have just 93!
Some of them are quite difficult to distinguish in the field and I often do not stop shooting them because I think I have already taken this species. I guess I must have missed a dozen new species for me!.

Which is why I recommend to keep shooting bugs you may think you already "have". Even if it turns out you already photographed it before, that's still not bad. It could be a better picture, a new behavior, life stage, better light, etc.

I completely agree. Right now, in the last few weeks, browsing through the archives, I have found species that I thought I had long shot and identified, and in fact, they were new to me.

In terms of Pentatomidae PT fauna has 89 species, some are very fresh and new ;)
Keep uploading yours too! Sure I can help in some. Arp surely will provide also all the help you need for ID's.
Thanks my friend!
This is an endless job :o)
