Hm, Green Stink Bug (Acrosternum hilare)?

RE: green bug who am I?

Certainly a green stink bug, but the Acrosternum images I looked at lacked the distinctive yellow margin and shield-spot that this Washington State bug has, so it may be a different species. These bugs can damage caneberries and other fruit, but they are not usually numerous. They are very common around here.

Not 4th instar. But an adult.
