Genus Dysdercus

In my area this insect is often called Kameng Jrun but I don't know the name of this insect in other areas because each area has a different nickname. This insect has an increasing population in my area and the proof is that now I have found it very often both behind the house and in my plantation, the population of this insect had decreased a few years ago but now the population is stable again and even increasing. This insect is not at all dangerous to humans and its nature is also not disturbing, so the presence of this insect is not considered a pest by farmers, even this insect is allowed to live on the farmers' crops.

I really like this insect, apart from its unique shape, I also really like its color, this insect has three colors on its body, namely black, white and red, but red is the most dominant color on the body of this insect.
Instead of being curious, it's better for you to see it yourself,I will share some pictures of this insect below.

This little red guy looks really cool. I haven't seen him in a while, and you've taken some really detailed shots, and I love them.
