Stink Bug - Thyanta pallidovirens
Agoura Hills, Los Angeles County, California, USA
April 3, 2015
I assume the white bit is a mite of sorts? What mites cling onto these sorts of bugs?

I'm not entirely sure where to put this, I think I know genus but never seen it before so I'll leave it here for now.

Sorry about the dump into ID request, I'm not confident enough with my true bug knowledge yet.
