The other image of this was identified as a stink bug nymph, which belongs in True Bugs. Can I ask why this image was moved from True Bugs?

If you look at the line of blue taxonomy above the image,
or click on Info or Images, you will discover that the image is now on the Pentatomidae guide page, which is the ... Stink Bugs!

Sorry, this morning we went through all the bugs on the basic True Bug page and we moved all the Stink bugs deeper into the guide to the Stink Bug page. They still need to be identified to genus or species in which case they will be moved again, deeper yet into the taxonomy of the guide.

Does that make sense?
