Shield bugs and Coat Button grass flowers

I wonder what is that red spot at the pro-thorax. Some kind of growth or parasite.

Interesting! I have never seen something like that, but I don't usually look that closely either. It's a beautiful picture!

A wildflower and a bug. You have captured them well and what a splendid combination.

it may be a mite of some sorts, so a parasite, but I'd like a close look than that to tell it for sure.

Exellent shot Tabib. It is a very long and beautiful bug.
