The Result

The Result

This is the eggs from last week. They were green then. Now when they are empty they are white. I sent a mail to the on-call biologist at The Museum of Natural History and his answer was. It is some sort of the stink bug or shield bug in the family Pentatomidae. Pentatomidae on WIKI
