The Woundwort Shieldbug Eysarcoris venustissimus feeds
predominantly on either Black Horehound Ballota nigra or Hedge Woundwort Stachys
sylvatica although other foodplants may be
utilised. The bugs are often to be found clustered together. The anterior part
of the scutellum is brassy in appearance.
