Dysdercus sidae on Lagunaria patersonia, Norfolk Island Hibiscus.
I couldn't find out much about these little bugs. Yet I have to have encountered them many, many, times before, and they were dense along the branches of this hibiscus. Any research done on them seems to have been done so long ago that my University (QUT) doesn't allow me access to the pdfs...
1928 gets quoted. & GoogleScholar gave 1964, 1970, 1973 (in S.Africa), and 1983!!!!
