Description
...the most colourful group of metallic mini-bots I have ever seen, just landed and attacking now at will...run for the hills !
***
The pentatomidae are known as Stink Bugs or Shield Bugs. They are frequently found in large numbers on crops and weeds. If disturbed, they will emit a pungent, evil-smelling liquid. They are mostly brown, some are greenish, although a few are highly coloured.
***
Most of the Stink bugs are plant suckers, although some are predators to other insects.

They are even more spectacular, when zoomed-in..
Cheers *BB*

You know, I thought what I've been killing are stink bugs, but was I wrong! These little creatures are so beautiful! Thanks for sharing this; excellent shot!

Very impressive macro capture! These little guys are quite shiny in spots. So did you disturb them to enjoy the aroma? ;)

They really are spectacular. I like the ones near the middle with their iridescent 'spots'. Great catches, all!

The zoom really does show up the irraidence of these beautifully coloured little bugs. I love how you have presented this group so that we can see each ones colours. What a shame they emit a nasty smell as they are so beautiful otherwise.

We have stinkbugs here, but nothing as flamboyant as these. They're amazing. I love the colors and the details you bring out! The stinkbugs I know of here are somewhat shield like with tiny little heads...I guess they're not the geniuses of the bug world, but oh well. These are amazing and I am incredibly happy to see them! Wonderful work, and your commentary gave me a good chuckle.

"Punaise" est une expression francophone - Celles-ci sont superbement colorées !

These are weird! I like them. They look like metal beads or some kind of jewelry and that's what is weird about them. Great collage of shots too. I don't know which bunch of little critters I like the most. I like them all.
