Stink Bug species I have observed
.
I found a new-to-me species of Stink Bug yesterday, so I decided to write a journal post listing all the Stink Bug taxa which I have observed so far. That includes seven observations from here in NYC, two from California, and three from Nevis, West Indies. A few of them are ID'ed only to the genus level.
The observations are listed here in chronological order, but I have only listed the first observation of each of the species, not any subsequent observations of the same taxon, except where the ID is only to the genus level.

2023, a Spined Soldier Bug, apparently came home with me, maybe off of some vegetation around the school on Madison Avenue between 81st and 82nd.
