Brown marmorated stink bug overwintering aggregations are not regulated through vibrational signals during autumn dispersal [PDF]
The brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae), is regarded as one of the world's most pernicious invasive pest species, as it feeds on a wide range of economically important crops.

Life History Traits of the Pentatomidae (Hemiptera) for the Development of Pest Management Tools
Knowledge of the biology of a pest is essential for building sustainable management programmes. Pentatomidae have a hemimetabolous life cycle with egg, nymphal, and adult life stages, which differ in morphological, ecological, and behavioural traits ...
