[This insect is an adult Green Stink Bug. They can, when disturbed, emit copious amounts of foul-smelling fluid. Both adults and nymphs (a nymph was photographed not long ago) possess large stink glands on the undersurface, opening through conspicuous slits.]

[This is a the nymph stage of the Green Stink Bug. The adult insects are fully green. They have needle-like mouth parts that feed on the juices of plants. Both adults and nymphs have large sized stink glands on the bottom side of the thorax. They discharge large amounts of a foul-smelling liquid when disturbed. This one bolted quickly away into the underbrush. I even wondered if I had gotten good shots of it! Fast indeed!]
