Cotton stainer bug

On the expanse of dense green leaves I saw someone whose appearance was very charming walking on the leaves. He was a Cotton stainer bug or in Latin known as Dysdercus poecilus, which is one of the insects from the Pyrrhocoridae family. The insect is very beautiful with sharp and striking colors.

Its back is orange decorated with solid black that forms a symmetrical pattern. If we look closely, its back is similar to someone wearing an orange suit complete with a black tie. On the neck there is a white color that circles, like a necklace.

For the lower body has a more striking color, reddish orange combined with white and a few black spots on the chest. The eyes, antennae and legs are shiny black. A very beautiful combination of colors, very contrasting with the surrounding environment.

After finishing taking pictures, I realized that the insect was no longer perfect, one of the back legs was missing. The tips of its wings also looked deformed. Even though its condition was no longer perfect, its spirit of life was still burning. The insect still shows its toughness in the middle of this small forest.
