Tetrisia (moth)
''Tetrisia'' is an invalid genus name for a species of moths in the family Erebidae, containing a single species, ''T. florigera''. It was described by Francis Walker in 1867. It is found in South America, including Costa Rica, Brazil and Colombia Colombia (, ; ), officially the Republic of Colombia, is a country in South America with insular regions in North America—near Nicaragua's Caribbean coast—as well as in the Pacific Ocean. The Colombian mainland is bordered by the Car .... Taxonomy The genus name is a homonym of '' Tetrisia'' Walker, 1867, a genus of plataspid bugs, published four months earlier, so the moth name must be formally replaced. The species '' Dysschema tricolora'' (Sulzer, 1776) has been mistakenly listed in the literature under the genus ''Tetrisia''.Zaspel, J.M., Branham, M.A. (2008) World Checklist of Tribe Calpini (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae: Calpinae).

Shield Bugs
The Pentatomoidea are a superfamily of insects in the Heteroptera suborder of the Hemiptera order. As Hemiptera, they share a common arrangement of sucking mouthparts. The roughly 7000 species under Pentatomoidea are divided into 21 families (16 extant and 5 extinct). Among these are the stink bugs and shield bugs, jewel bugs, giant shield bugs, and burrower bugs. Description The Pentatomoidea are characterised by a well-developed scutellum (the hardened extension of the thorax over the abdomen). It can be triangular to semielliptical in shape. The antennae typically have five segments. The tarsi usually have two or three segments. Shield bugs have prothoracic glands (in their thoraces, between the first and second pair of legs) that produce a foul-smelling liquid, which is used defensively to deter potential predators and is sometimes released when the bugs are handled. These prothoracic glands are also present in the nymphs, which are similar to adults except smaller ...
