On an afternoon walk i noticed this brightly coloured insects and i was curious to see what the are and i stumbled upon this bugs called Spotted Tortise Bug.
I think the name came from the shape of the exoskeleton which looks like a tortoise shell.
I found them in a highly vegetative area with lots of grasses and nature water source formed from rains.
