Stink Bug - Holcostethus limbolarius

Stink Bug - Holcostethus limbolarius
Petit-Cap, Westmorland County, New Brunswick, Canada
July 23, 2012
Size: approx. 10mm
My apologies for the poor quality of this image. Found this bug walking in the sand near the tip of a sand spit that I walk almost daily. Would really like to know the ID (I'm guessing it might be Euschistus?) as I have a photo of a nymph from the same location the previous day and suspect they are the same species. They are the only 'bugs' I've noticed out at the tip all summer! I could post the photo of the nymph if it might be useful. Thanks very much.

Looks like Holcostethus to me.
H. limbolarius is the most common one.
