Large Milkweed Bug - Oncopeltus fasciatus

Large Milkweed Bug - Oncopeltus fasciatus
Bowie, Prince George's County, Maryland, USA
September 10, 2004
Immature insect assemblage, guarded by parent(s). Several such groups at varying immature ages were present. The youngest individuals were reddest, becoming increasingly more orange with age. One photo shows a spent skin. Despite the present of several groups within a few feet of each other, finding skins to photograph was difficult.
