Dive into the intricate details of the Euschistus heros, a prevalent brown stink bug found across Brazil's South, Midwest, and North regions. Notably a significant pest in soybean crops, this 13mm dark brown insect stands out with its spine-like extensions and a distinctive white half-moon patch on its wings.
