Camellia Shield Bug (Poecilocoris latus,family Pentatomidae, order Hemiptera) is a very attractive and spectacular shield bug to be found on the foliage of Camellia and tea bushes on various hillside slopes in tropical and sup-tropical regions. This insect can produce strong defensive odours from their thoracic glands. Females lay clusters of barrel-shaped eggs on plants. There are five nymphal stages. Nymphs start life as herbivores but later become predators or mixed feeders.
