The green stink bug (Acrosternum hilare)


According to Dr. David Rider of North Dakota State University the genus name is wrong. The genus name Acrosternum should be restricted to a handful of Old World, small, pale green species that live in dry arid areas. The larger, brighter green species that live in both the Old and New Worlds should actually go by the genus name Chinavia, therefore this species should be called Chinavia hilaris.
