Asopinae

Subfamily of true bugs From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Asopinae are a subfamily of stink bugs (family Pentatomidae). They are predatory stink bugs that are useful as biological control agents against pests, even against other herbivorous Pentatomid species.[1] Despite being predatory, the rostrum is similarly straw-like as herbivorous Pentatomids. Their diet usually consists of soft-bodied insects like caterpillars and beetle larvae.[2][3]
