Dock Bug - Coreus marginatus

These brown bugs look a bit like prehistoric monsters to me - but they are only about 12 mm long. If you disturb them they can produce a stinky liquid which stains your skin brown.

Great capture but sounds awful.

I shall make a note not to disturb these, should I ever come across one!
