Abstract
This document provides an in-depth profile of the redbanded stink bug, Piezodorus guildinii. It covers the insect’s introduction, distribution, physical description, life stages, and host plants. The redbanded stink bug is a significant pest in the southeastern United States, particularly affecting leguminous crops like soybeans. The article also discusses the damage caused by this pest and various management strategies, including monitoring, cultural practices, and chemical control. The information is intended for both laypersons with some biological knowledge and academic audiences.
