This is another entry for the daily #monomad challenge. As usual, I submitted some macro shots here.
This is the lychee giant stink bug nymph that I found in the bushes that grew thickly along the roadside in my village.
The bug doesn't have shields or wings, so the protrusions of the segments on its rough belly look quite detailed in such a way.
In entomology, it has the scientific name Tessaratoma papillosa, a species of bug belonging to the family Tessaratomidae.
Just like most stink bugs, it spreads a foul odor that stings the nose when it squirts liquid from its abdomen. But it only does it when its soul feels threatened. Luckily while I was taking pictures, it seemed this bug was in a good mood, so it didn't do that.
