Another stink bug we think may be Euschistus. Any help with ID appreciated.

I think you're right:-)
Euschistus for the genus. May not be easily identified beyond that. It is always helpful to get a ventral shot of these.

Eric,

Thanks for the ID to genus and for the comments. We'll try to get a ventral shot next time.
