Fungi Infested Stink Bug

[ekavieka]

First of all, trust me the title is clickbait, but it is also half true. I am not sure if "infested" is the right word for it since the bug is already dead when I found it. And the funny part is that I don't notice the fungi thing in its body when I first saw its body on the floor.

After reviewing the photos that I took, I notice that they have a kind of mycelium hair all over his body. That certainly gives me a clue that this guy might have been dead a few days earlier, and the fungi have already done their thing to decompose the body and bring back the nutrient back to the soil.

I might be wrong about the fungi, but the possibility is quite big in my opinion. if you have any idea of what it might be tangling all around the bug's body, please let me know.
