There's something very unique about this insect: it releases a foul-smelling liquid when threatened, perhaps to deceive predators. This uniqueness made me interested in observing it. I found this insect in the bushes near a rice field. Its local name is geusong. It is a very dangerous plant pest.
Leptocorisa oratorius fabricius (hemiptera: Alydidae); syn. Leptocorisa acuta is an insect that is a significant pest of cultivated plants, especially rice wikipedia
This insect is elongated, about 2 cm long, grayish-brown, and green in color, and has a proboscis for sucking plant fluids.
