Brown Marmorated Stink Bug

Rancocas Woods, Burlington County, New Jersey, USA
August 17, 2008

Found on a potted hibiscus that lives outside in the summer. I couldn't get an accurate size, but maybe 5 mm? Can anyone ID family? Pentatomidae maybe, or even Coreidae?
edit: maybe Halyomorpha halys (Brown Marmorated Stink Bug)?

Thanks again

Not a great image, and we do have some nymphs in the guide... Keep or Frass? Frass I think.

We only see one other nymph this age

in the guide. We'd keep it. Seems everyone has had difficulty getting sharp images of this one!

It kept running to the other side of the leaf. I would flip the leaf and quickly shoot, then try again as it was on the other side!
