These large true bugs occur in four bright colour morphs: red, orange, yellow and cream with dark eye spots on their forewings, advertising their noxious taste and also perhaps functioning as eyespots to mislead predators. Overall, the spotted pattern resembles a man’s face when one views the bug oriented with the head downwards (I can see you tilting your head). Pu'er, Yunnan, China
