Stink bug? Superfamily Pentatomoidea -
Conquistator mucronatus
Boynton Beach, Palm Beach County, Florida, USA
July 30, 2010
I have narrowed this bug eating a caterpillar to the Superfamily Pentatomoidea.
Anybody know what family, sub-family, etc?

Maybe something in/near
Podisus
?
Yours seem similar to these (although a bit more colorful, perhaps).
Let's see what the experts have to say.

Podisus mucronatus -- nice one, thanks for posting it!
all predatory pentatomoids are members of the subfam. Asopinae.
