This must be Prionosoma podopioides, right? - Agonoscelis puberula
Robert J. Bernard Biological Field Station, Claremont, Los Angeles County, California, USA
March 30, 2010
I believe that the only pentatomid in my area that is so obviously covered in dense hair is Prionosoma podopioides. But, as this information will be added to a scientific database for the field station, I figured it would be best to get some confirmation from others just to be certain. :-)

Photographed on Amsinckia menziesii.

Thanks for the confirmation, =v=.
I have some pretty high-quality pics of this species (displaying nice full-ventral view & also showcasing the bright red wings) from several of my pool rescues. I will try to post those sometime soon...
